If you go on to Google, and select 'more' from the menu at the top, you
will see a drop down menu with the item 'groups'. Click on this, enter
uk.rec.gardening in the box, and you now have access to Google's
archive. You can then search within the group on any topic you want.
It's well worth doing, because if you ask a question that has only
recently been dealt with, or one that has come up dozens of times, some
of the people who gave helpful replies the first time around may not
have the time or inclination to reply on the same topic so soon
afterwards - so searching first may give you more information than you'd
get by asking on the group.


I've used Google Groups quite regularly in the past, usually the
'advanced search' facility as it allows a more detailed search and
usually returns what I'm looking for immediately with very few false
hits. But I just tried to pick up the thread on rhododendron pruning
so that I could direct Evelyn to it, and it doesn't seem to be
working, at least, not for me. In fact I can't pick up anything from
uk.rec.gardening, not my own posts, nor anyone else's for that matter.
I've tried it all ways but no response. I see the format has changed a
bit, but I can't see what I'm doing wrong, if anything. Is it actually
working, do you know?

It was yesterday
