Lo all,
Some of you may have noticed that a couple of spammers flooded the forum yesterday and today. Of course, it's easy to purge, but if I miss something I'd appreciate it if someone could drop me a line: Mike DAWT Saunders AT futurenet DAWT com (or okachi AT gmail DAWT com at weekends/evenings!).
Cheers,
Mike
Webmaster/monster

Oh, so I missed today's fun then? I can only blame work, it's obvious that I waste far too much time going there. _________________ Bye, Rhakios |

Work isn't that bad, it just takes so much spare time
Well, I got 3 (!!) pages of 'new posts' this morning. Except one (yours ) all spam....  |

Is it really a good idea to have your email addresses un-obfuscated on here in plain text? _________________

Took me a few moments to work out what DAWT was. It that a West-country accent?  |

I just had a severe shock, Mike. How can you mention spam and fun in the same breath? Not funny at all  |

Got to look on the bright side of things, even when confronted by 200 junk mail messages on a Monday morning!

Me too. I thought it was an acronym at first!
Sorry, I'm a bit slow at this end of the day.
Don't know about West Country. Sounds more like the ever so posh teachers at my High School.  |

Well - LXF towers is in Bath and Bath is in Zummerrrzet, so I wondered if Mike had been affected by the local lingo.
