Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 1,747 Send Message	Ann when I joined GR in October, they advised me that fellow members where extremely helpful and had knowledge on all sorts of issues. I have found this to be true, please continue. Paula PS It seems to take GR a long time to get around their messages ;-) Edit PPS The thread above this is from GR saying "Share your knowledge"

	Maybe somebody new flexing their muscles a bit. Not the way toincrease the respect they are steadily losing from their members though. I suppose at least they apologised. :-)
