    Deryck who originally set the group up has appointed me as moderator
    of this list.

    We have encountered some unpleasant spam messages recently and there
    have been inappropriate things like links to betting and porn sites
    placed on the list's webpage.

    Starting right now the procedure for new members has been changed so
    that I have to approve anyone before they can join the list. Also
    their first posting will be approved before it appears on the list,
    this will mean that 99% of spam messages will be eliminated.

    Also I've been to the management page and removed the previously
    mentioned links that were on there. When I have some time I'll go
    back through the message archive and get rid of any more I find
    there.

    None of the above will affect existing members in any way, you can
    carry on posting and reading messages in the normal way. I hope this
    will make everyone's enjoyment of our group better.

    Bill.

    Important news for all the members of the group

     

    Deryck who originally set the group
    up has appointed me as moderator of this list.

     

    We have encountered some unpleasant
    spam messages recently and there have been inappropriate things like links
    to betting and porn sites placed on the list's webpage.

     

    Starting right now the procedure for
    new members has been changed so that I have to approve anyone before they
    can join the list. Also their first posting will be approved before it
    appears on the list, this will mean that 99% of spam messages will be eliminated.

     

    Also I've been to the management
    page and removed the previously mentioned links that were on there. When I have
    some time I'll go back through the message archive and get rid of any more I
    find there.

     

    None of the above will affect
    existing members in any way, you can carry on posting and reading messages in
    the normal way. I hope this will make everyone's enjoyment of our group better.

     

    Bill.
