29 Nov 02 - 10:07 AM (#837130) Subject: RE: BS: How to Breeze-proof your threads? From: Piersy Yes, well it's very easy to slag off people who get off their arses and organise things for themselves. All folk music is good music Anyone found dropping bombs on anywhere will be in big trouble Piers |

29 Nov 02 - 07:12 PM (#837453) Subject: RE: BS: How to Breeze-proof your threads? From: Lanfranc I always thought that BS threads were primarily for shooting the breeze! As for the matchless Dave Bryant - and may he live forever! I also heard had the 'amish were averse to any form of progress. Alan |
30 Nov 02 - 05:16 AM (#837633) Subject: RE: BS: How to Breeze-proof your threads? From: GUEST Way to go Alan! Thinking about the name of this thread, and apropos of nothing. Does anyone remember Alan Breeze? Another thought, where's Dai got to, haven't heard from him for ages, hardly a word since the SS Getaway, did we forget to thank him? I enjoyed it, THANK-YOU Dai.

01 Dec 02 - 02:36 PM (#838369) Subject: RE: BS: How to Breeze-proof your threads? From: Hamish You see, John, the point I'm trying to make is that there is a certain etiquette to be aware of in posting to news groups and the like. There is so much material on these sites - it'd be a full-time job just to read all the postings on Mudcat alone - that people like to have some sort of clue what they're going to read about from the thread title. And if they open a thread which is supposedly about how to string a ukelele then they may not want a whole lot of clutter about a club in St Albans - particularly if they live in Birmingham, Alabama (or Birmingham, England for that matter). Having said that a certain degree of scope-creep is inevitable, and often results in some interesting points coming up. But you'll see that some people will rename the thread and quote "was such-and-such" in the new thread. Okay - (mild) rant over. And (scope creep, sorry!) yes - honours even in Cardiff. We had 'em singing fol-de-rol etc in John Barleycorn. Very friendly audience. |
01 Dec 02 - 04:08 PM (#838416) Subject: RE: BS: How to Breeze-proof your threads? From: McGrath of Harlow Haven't noticed any of this. There've been no untoward breezes in any of the threads I've read recently, |
02 Dec 02 - 05:47 AM (#838737) Subject: RE: BS: How to Breeze-proof your threads? From: Dave Bryant Perhaps John ought to run his own permathread and restrict all his adverting to that - we could all find out how good the filtering is then ! It's OK John - we all love you - really. After all I've probably known you for at least 33 years - and I used to listen to you on the radio (when I was a little boy) when you were with Billy Cotton in the days when you called yourself Alan. |
