Problems with uk.rec.gardening
Is anyone else getting loads of absolute rubbish postings here, or is it
only me? I would appreciate if someone could let me know so that I can start looking into my news reader if I am alone in this. TIA -- All replies to this email address are deleted on receipt. Common sense, not common market. |

I'm not a regular here (first posting was a few days ago) but I'm certainly
not seeing anything untoward. I have a killfile set up for the usual dregs (particularly the anagramatically-named Phil Kyle) so probably explains why I don't see them. If you're using Outlook highlight the message and select Message ¦ Block Sender to set it up.

Someone somewhere has said something sensible which has upset one of our fringe posters who has responded in the interests of 'free speech'. -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" Yeah! Someone got ****ed because you told them not to top post probably! |
