Although we do understand that forums are a good place to meet people, we would very much appreciate it if you would keep personal approaches to the private mail system or by email. Please do not put personal / private messages on the forum as it confuses the issue on threads where people are asking pertinent questions, and tends to push the threads right off topic.

The system I'm afraid is set up here so that you cannot pm until you have made 4 posts, and this is to stop spammers from registering and spamming by pm. You do of course have the option of posting your email address in a thread of course but we do not advise it, as the address may get trawled and then you will get spammed.

I thank you for your cooperation
