yes it is on gardenbanter.
silly thing is then, it looks like any other forum and has option to
attach items. whats the point?

Your posts are appearing elsewhere on perhaps thousands of news servers
that don't accept any form of attachment because the newsgroups that
gardenbanter leach into are text only.

Despite the claims made by gardenbanter, uk.rec.gardening has absolutely
nothing to do with that organisation and you don't have to register with
anyone to post to it.
