            I saw that! My trusty Nikon is in its box at the moment as it is refusing to focus properly and I can't afford to repair it. And tablet/phone photos are just ... nah. But I will join in as soon as I can.

              I can't really understand why anyone would get banned from a gardening forum. Oh and welcome to all new members on this happy forum:rasp:

                We very occasionally get people that step over the line repeatedly, but it is very rare here. I have only had a brief look at GW, but it does not strike me as particularly friendly.

                  I'm a Ramsgate FC & Wolves FC supporter, does that get me banned?
