A new member attempted to post this in Wayne’s Alan Blade PackPal Wanted thread. Obviously a scammer. I was thinking that they might like to receive marketing mails from companies that got hold of their email address somewhere :rolleyes: We usually remove email addresses from posts so they...

There has been a repeat large turd like this, in the same spot on my parents’ lawn. There was one on Sunday morning, and having removed it, there is another there this morning. We are thinking that the size and repeats suggest fox, but we have never had such a persistent fox before. We are...

Yesterday I saw a new post from a recent member that flagged on our scammer detection system and thought I would share a little, since this is the first time I have seen a situation where I am certain that a scammer has used AI to try sound like they belong here. First, a little background...

I visited for three hours around midday on Saturday. Did a couple of complete circuits in that time, chatted to a few folks but no one for long. Didn’t see more than a couple of faces familiar from the Moot. Seemed smaller event than the one I went to once before. Nice location, very...

Just had to swallow a bitter and unexpected pill. £20.50 VAT and £8 handling on a £105 second hand purchase sent from the Republic of Ireland. I suppose I should have known, but I have never bought second hand from outside the UK before and I wasn't paying attention to where the sale was...
