FWIW Even on this side of the Atlantic we are not safe from Tim's spam. the
usenet group uk.rec.boats.paddle is also swamped with Tim's latest drivel.
Tim un-surprisingly is completely oblivious to the fact that this
newsgroup's traffic is mostly from white water paddlers who really are not
interested in spamsons on their playboats :-) - the responses were funny at
first....

I was subscribed to Wave~length when Ingram first started his insane spam
crusade, and remember well how he managed to swamp the medium - the benefit
however was paddlewise rising phoenix like from the ashes.  I'm pretty much
a silent lurker but I have been subscribed since the list was formed. I'll
add my thanks to Jackie and the membership of the list for its entertainment
value, and Ralph I recall you had just a wee bit of input into raising
support for the new list as it was formed - thanks also.


Cheers


Colin

If any one is interested some pictures of me and a couple of my boats etc
