    Thanks to those who flagged up a "spammer" in our midst.

    The offending post is now deleted and the member sent to wander other forums peddling his tat.

    Whilst we moderators do try to keep on top of things such as this , they do get through on occasion, so if you do come across one, please pm Jennie atkinson, Shortie or myself and we will deal with them post haste.

    Thanks in advance

      I assume you mean the one who was trying to flog us all Wiis and the like. Noticed that earlier but wasn't sure who to flag it up to as it didn't look like any of the mods were about at the time. At least they were only selling reduced price electrical type stuff - nowhere near as bad as some of the stuff I sometimes get in my home in box...............

      Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

      Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

        From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

            So all we've got to do now is work out how to block all the wholly inappropriate adverts that now clutter up this Forum - why the hell do I want to know about watering systems sourced from Australia etc etc etc.

                  Shirley - What you sort out between yourselves via PMs is fine by us, provided there are no buying and sellling threads/posts on the Boards please.

                    Thanks Jennie - I know some folks are pretty desperate to get hold of these.

                        TonyF, what is the catch then? Wrong plugs? Wrong games? (French ones can only play Euro not UK games?)
                        If they are kosher for UK market, please get some and stick 'em on eBay!

                          We have been doing that Two Sheds. They are the same as the UK ones and play the same games. You just need to buy an adapter as they have european two-pin plugs. We bought ours in Germany last year and have had no trouble. Another difference is that you get a Nintendo 2 year warranty instead of the one-year I understand to be usual here. PM me if you want more info.

                            Just put this below it -
                            There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore and who always will. Don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it in your future.
