Hi there,
I just thought I'd start this of, what do you like about this NG? I like the humour, the helpful people and the fact that it's not moderated. I also like the fact that I'm not discriminated for my age. I remember when I was much younger/stupid/idiotic I used to post rubbish such as: http://groups.google.co.uk/group/uk....keston+boiler# I have learnt a lot on this NG. Now I am much more decent and post things that are far more logical. |
