Many thanks to Foxy for the Thunderboat window "stickers ".  Since I put these up Thunderboat has gone mental with new members and the number of new threads has rocketed. Well Done Foxy. |

Heh! I never thought of that as an idea, that my little ads could be put in boat windows. I'm afraid I only managed to put two up - one in the stores in Wrenbury for 10 weeks (@ 30p/week) and one in the corner shop in the centre of Ellesmere (again @ 30p/week). I walked past half an hour later and it still hadn't gone up so if anyone happens to be in Ellesmere I'd appreciate hearing it is actually on display. If it isn't I'll ask for my 3 quid back at Christmas.
Our week just flashed by. As usual I bought 5 postcards... and never got round to finding the time to sit down and write them, so here they are at home. We were really lucky with perfect weather, and found the Llangollen Canal to be more charming than I had imagined. Photos uploading as we speaketh....

The missus will have a look in the morning, if they aren't there she'll have a "quiet" word. Looking forward to the pics. |

Logo and link to here now on my website that is part of the canal ring so one hopes it might send a few more here. Regrettably for even handedness I have also added the other place but unless Dan sorts it I can see me taking it off again, especially if the poor advice keeps coming.

Regrettably for even handedness I have also added the other place but unless Dan sorts it I can see me taking it off again, especially if the poor advice keeps coming. If you are 'advertising' other sites and are no longer confident that people will get accurate answers to technical queries and being newbies they will not know if the answer is right or wrong - else why did they ask? - then I would think twice before recommending such a place on your site. I would suggest the right thing to do is point people to the site you or others you trust will be found upon. |

That is all well and good but it is not immediately obvious that we have a gas expert here for example and I doubt he will come over after the name calling. I will continue to monitor that site for a while and if Dan does not get a grip on the poor advice I will remove. Until then I will try to keep those answer I am confident about right on track. |
