Having had a busy couple of years I've not looked in here much lately

see what's happening.

Three days now and nothing?

What's gone wrong it used to be so busy?


Still here, although it's not as easy as it used to be getting to
Newsgroups when Outlook Express could do it (although it
handled them wrongly).
I even have to use Thunderbird for emails now Microsoft haven't got a
decent email client program.

I did find the NewsgroupsRF App for Windows which is how I now view and
post here.


Like Bob I have found it hard to hang in there, had to change to
Thunderbird (which I now quite like!) then various news accounts seem to
have closed now using news.eternal-september.org which seems a bit
intermittent with how messages arrive.

Still good to keep in touch (and I dont particularly like facebook!)
