Still trying to find the "law" I've broken (perhaps someone could point me to it if they know?) but given that it wasn't a commercial site and was relevant to this it seems a tad draconian.
Anyway, since I'm not allowed to link to it (unless I can get the "ruling" overturned once I find the law I've broken) perhaps I might be permitted to at least say that if anyone would like to PM me, I'll gladly PM you the link.
Hope so anyway.
Max why not put the link on Pasture's site?
Can you add it to this thread? Afer all, others' hae been linked0 -
By now the link should be in Max' profile0

It's the naughty people on this thread, smoking ciggies and hanging out at the back of the school bus. Hang out with the bad crowd and you get what you deserve. Bottom 10% of the league tables, entirely disposable. Watch out or the 456'll get ya too.0

As PN says, it's in my profile now (hopefully).
Does seem odd that there are plenty of other blogs linked in this thread which haven't been removed, and mine which is probably as relevant as can be to it has been.
Maybe you're just not allowed to promote or recommend your own blogs (still not found the "law" I've broken to be able to clarify this), in which case if someone else were to recommend it in this thread presumably that'd be ok...Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

Maybe you need to put the link to your blog in the text of a post in an existing thread - that seems to pass MSE "laws"....:D (unless its just down to the fact that its obvious to MSE that nowt I do is remotely money-oriented...except in the moneysaving sense). "Money" tends to be a "four letter word" here chez ceridwen..and I guess that comes over very clearly....despite all my sarky comments about my low-paid job....
Anyways...good luck with the blog.0 -

That's a good idea, but it would rely on people searching backwards through the thread to try and find it.
It's in my profile now so hopefully people will be able to find it fairly easily there instead.
And who knows, maybe someone will link to it in one of there posts (AHEM!!!)
Anyways...good luck with the blog.
That's kind of you, thank you.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
Hey I found a really cool blog about just this subject:
http://charliecroker.wordpress.com/
Mx, you should do yours like his. I bet yours will be High End pants in comparison to this guys fluent and compelling writing style.
ETA: PN, I can't se where you put it ''Elsewhere''. I went elsewhere today because I was hoping a lot of you would talk me (well, DH,)out of a 28. mpg car.0
