    Oh I don't get spam on my real email account (the one that GC has) but I get about 5 to 10 a day (usually trying to sell me viagra - I don't know whether to be insulted ot flattered), or trying to get me to join an on-line casino. Except for charity, I won't even buy a raffle ticket - hate gambling.

    It doesn't matter as such but I just hate invasion of my privacy. I even registered for mailing preference so as not to get junk mail. Pity the Royal Mail totally ignores my wishes and delivers it willy-nilly.

    If we get enough people with pins in the map the Moderators "may" if we ask nicely make it a sticky somewhere so we can all reference it .

    Some people have pm'ed me their postcode and as I don't know exactly which house they live in I drop the pin in the area .
    I don't want to look at your back and front gardens I just want a better idea of the spread of members through the country.

    Well you can see my front and back garden, even my pond (which is about the size of a large tub!) and roses in the front with their little circles of brick lovely laid by moi!

    Funny, I get those Viagra ads as well. I am hoping it's because they assume that 'Jo' is a feller. :o Such graphic images such as "Make her moan all night!" I could happily do without!

    And I am also on the mailing prefence list but the Royal Mail still let me have THEIR sponsored spam!




    That is eminently doable!

    Dasiees,I can't read the whole of your text because it's hidden but I assume you are asking what .."Obed-Edom"means ..is it "Servant of Edom",who sheltered the Ark of the covenant for David?

    Oh Daisees, you can't tease us like that. Are you waiting for the most accurate? I'm intrigued.

    cheers

    Right, i think it is David's place for the covenant. A Gittite is a person from a certain place ( like Londoners etc) so the name is a persons name as it used to be, called Johnson for example because he was Johns' son etc.

    Not very well explained that was it, but i know what i mean do you?

    cheers
