Is that your real e-mail address if I take some bits out?
I can hardly carry on like this, without getting my knuckles rapped
again

If, by having your knuckles rapped, you mean being asked to take
private
correspondence to private email, you must have led a very sheltered
life,
Martin. But yes, I will ask you to remember that this group does not
have
'Martin' in its title.

I seem to remember that some of your last mails have not been on topic
Madam

And have been marked as such, unlike your personal indulgences.

I am not sure who put stripes on your shoulder but may I remind you this
is
not a moderated list

O

And I'm not at all sure who told you this newsgroup was your personal
indulgence.

With certain exceptions, of which you are one, it is mostly a polite and
considerate list of others who come here to talk on topic and help each
other. Those of us who choose to post OFF topic deliberately , warn
others
in the subject line to start with. That gives all posters the opportunity
to kill file anything OT.
IF the topic changes drastically, most/many take it to email or warn the
rest of us by marking the change as OT. It's a small courtesy but quite a
telling one, IME, more in the breach than in the observance.
For you and Martin to be using this group to advertise ferry travel is a
gross breach of its charter. But more importantly, it's just simple bad
manners. Why would a gardening group be interested in your travel
arrangements, unless it's to a horticultural show?

falconry?

spam software report-back - long!

Is the fox a pest ? the lie exposed

Just some of the topics to which you have contributed And these have to
do with gardening exactly what?

May I suggest you keep your bossy opinions to yourself. I don't believe you
are a moderator here or have you elevated yourself to that postion?
