Just a note as a non-Kiwi and relatively new to this board.
There seems to be some confusion over some posts by those with the signatures of Moderators (or similar). I am assuming that most of the posts are purely personal experience, and are not posted as Moderators. I think AndyCampbell may be assuming that if a Moderator posts, then it implies Moderation.It might be helpful to clarify the difference between Moderator action and Moderator participation. Apologies AndyCampbell if you thought I was having some sort of Admin pop for some reason. Although I can't see why you would think that. Believe it or not, BE Admin has a whole host of other Admin rubbish to sort. Most of it not seen on the chat forums. I don't have time to oversee moderation. That is for the moderators. Your use of the :eek: smilie had me thinking you were being irreverent about something that can cause a real medical issue. As I wrote, perhaps not clearly enough, sand fly + mozzie bites are a real issue for me. Daubing on assorted home remedies or eating mammoth amounts of marmite will not do it . I was assured that immunity would build up to the sandfly bites which are particularly painful with intense itching & swelling. That isn't the case. Instead bee stings are now also an issue as of this year. :( Poo! |

Maybe from your side of the IT desk, from this side it is shown as "eek" - not a smiley. Just sayin !

Dare I mention that Scotland has midges and you can rest assured (not pulling anyone’s leg) that we don’t rush out and spray chemicals on. The preferred is - natural products. |

Couldn't possibly say, was with the wife while I was there and I only have eyes for her. But pretty good IMHO

Myself and the mod team have no IT desks. BE is not our job. We use our own devices just like anyone else and volunteer our own free time . As the previously banned OP has left the building , this thread is now closed. |
