what's the ignore button?

carolinejane, it's a feature that, when invoked, means that any posts by a particular forum member are made invisible to you - you just don't get to see them even though they are there.

To invoke it, click on "User CP" on the green menu bar towards the top of the page and your control panel will appear

Click on "Edit Ignore" List under the Settings & Options on the control panel menu on the left hand side

Type in absolutebounder in the add member to the ignore list box, click OK and you'll never have to read his dribble again

I agree and I will not be pressing it.

Oh and the phrase is actually the use of knowledge is power I believe;)

Valli - help, I need you! I have scrumped 2lbs of cherries from next doors tree that hangs over my fence before the birds have them all and I want make them into jam. Any recommended recipes, and do I really have to stone them all? (and before anyone says anything I do have their permission)

Try this recipe - yes it needs no liquid I was bought a stoner as a gift. It gets used about 4 times a year but is invaluable if you have access to plenty of cherries. This is the one I have - it's quick and easy to use.
