    Hey ive come to unconfuse you :)
    The first thread got too long so then moved to the second thread, which was full of "chat comments" that were "off topic" so there was a new thread made, because of length and to help newbies see main posts!

    Took a look around, see which way the wind blow.

    Depends on ones expectations - I work on the basis that someone may get dozens of replies - I would not expect them to reply to every single one - If I don't hear within 48 hours or so I assume it's gone to someone else - don't other people think along similar lines :confused::confused:

    I have never got anything from Freecycle dispite making many requests - I have never had a reply either.
