Just found a vacant newsgroup that might suit a lot of us who post OT
subjects in uk legal and the D-I-Y group.

I like the idea, but. There is always a but. To be honest, I think the
OT posts would continue anyway, and I quite like some of the OT stuff.
Bit like standing in a pub with a group of blokes (and girls!) really.
Although this group (uk.d-i-y) tolerates OT posts and stretches the
definition of DIY at times, I think it does amazingly well to continue
pretty well on topic, as it has done for years. There are not that many
Usenet groups worth subscribing to, now.

I can only agree with all of that.
