from "Ophelia" contains these words:

She *MAY* have been posting here before me, (in another spamcarnation)
and I've been here on and off for about six or seven years.

OK I have been here for a couple of years but I can't say I have seen
her

I thought I saw one of her posts recently, but it must have autoexpired
- I have a seven day expiry on this group.

You might recognise ?

When I was a kid we had to make do with a one legged Breton onion
seller on a bicycle.

Looxury! Why, when I were lad us couldn't afford a Breton wit legs.....

The message
from Sacha contains these words:

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?

Considering some of the blethering you've posted to this group over
the years, I think you've got a bloody cheek here, Lady!

Yep with my bestest pointy hat

Hey! you'll be treading on Anne J's toes if you're not careful.

WRT what, exactly? The pointy hat, or the Kleeneze? G

Silly season innit! We've got to do *something* when we can't garden! G

Personally I find the little diversion very instructive. Either you
haven't been on Usenet very long, Sacha, or you view it through rose
(and delphinium) tinted spectacles.

Your mistake; Sacha has been contributing to urg for very many years.
Both she and urg have a long reputation for being polite on-topic and
patient most of the time.

Were you here when Sacha first wandered in? I was! Can you remember
the many off-topic conversations that took place then? I can!

The message
from Judith Lea contains these words:

However, like
some of us she gets fed up with the childish repartee of some posters
and as a long time urgler, she has a vested interest, as most of us do,
to try and keep broadly to gardening matters.

Like gold slippers and faux cigarettes? Hmmmm! I remember
long-ago conversations, Judith!!

Who? Anyway I have been playing with that for years)

Anne posts in here from time to time, and has been doing so for a good
five years, I'd guestimate.

She *MAY* have been posting here before me, (in another spamcarnation)
and I've been here on and off for about six or seven years.

I think longer than five years, but who's counting? G

Mainly lurking these days, 'cos I'm too busy out there ......
selling Kleeneze, would you believe! ;-)

If Google is to be believed I made my first post to urg on
27th February 1997. That's almost seven years ago....but
TBH I haven't posted much in the past few years!
