Hello all,
I've just registered with the site, and each time I try to login I
keep getting:
"Error: Invalid username/password combination. Please try again."

After 6 attempts the message is now:
"Sorry, you have been banned from this forum.
Your ban will expire on Today at 11:56am find I'm BANNED!"

What the hell gives?
I've just had bad news about my health, so this crap I don't need
right now!!
The bad news - prostate cancer!

Hanging head.
Just noticed that access to Discussion Groups needs activation with
key provided in email.
Temper a bit short right now folks.
Apologies to Modeleng people.

Yup! Headfirst into the wall that stops the spammers from taking over!

Sorry to hear about the diagnosis.

Cheers

GeofH,
Does it really matter that much? Your health is far more
important than any old forum.
I have just come back- again, from a nasty Urological examination and
from a prostatectomy 3 years ago.

Simply, concentrate on the essentials. I think that many people who
have been- well, up against reality, will wish you well and a speedy
return to - your normal cantankerous self!

We are with you- God Bless

Hello Norman,

>Does it really matter that much?

No, but it's just that with all things taken into account, what with
me, my Mum pretty sick right now, I was looking to take my mind off
things, and it just got to me.
Sometimes it's the little inconsequential things that make you blow
your top - not logical as Spock would say, but they do :-)

> Your health is far more important than any old forum.

Yes indeed.

>I have just come back- again, from a nasty Urological examination and

Hope things are ok with you!

Thanks.

With good neighbours and friends in this group, I will get into the
workshop and use the toys.
See my reply to Trevor Jones.
Will keep the group informed as to progress.
