I left a message on another thread about this, after being told off by
Mr R Hinge for viewing this newsgroup via Garden Banter. Please could
someone tell me how to access urg? I've tried Googling it, but altho I
get a home page it won't let me proceed. MY ISP is aol - don't know
whether that's a problem.
P.S. I found Garden Banter by accident and am wondering why it is so
infra dig. The posts from other parts of the world are often
informative and sometimes very amusing.


Here I am, replying to myself. I've tried twice to get a response to
this. Please don't tick me off or write snotty comments when I mention
something I've seen elsewhere on GardenBanter if none of you urglers is
prepared to give me guidance on how to access urg other than via GB.





You need a news reader, normally a computer will come with one as part of
the email package, go to tools accounts and look under the "News" tag,
however some of the free to use readers are better at getting rid of spam
messages I use MicroPlanet Gravity which was a free down load.
Then you need to subscribe to the newsgroup, UK rec gardening in this
case. again your ISP may have this listed and you can subscribe for free
or you can buy annual subscription from outfits like News.Individual.
