you can get banned for offering to exchange addresses and post out stuff to one another so PLEASE don't let's have anyone else banned from here

Are we talking ice buns here? If anyone would think it was a serious request.. this is a hard enough journey without having to resort to being 'told off' for trying to inject some humour.

If you're happy to do so in the privacy of email/pm/messenger then feel free to exchange details, but I for one wouldn't publicly post anything on threads that would trace anyone back to me.

As for being banned, I'm not so sure. There have been instances such as Hypno06's requests for ink cartridges which even ran in Martin's weekly newsletter, which I understand is circulated to over a million recipients.

Rant over.

OOPS! Forgot about this part - yes, it's citrus fruit peel, like the 'bits' you get in marmalade

Yes it is. If you buy 'mixed fruit' instead of currants on their own they will be included in the mix. Will save you a few pennies

CharliesAngel, no, I was not referring to your joke about sending iced buns and don't know what gave you that idea

I was referring to the MSE RULES, the following in particular:

PERSONAL DETAILS AND THE OFFERING OF ITEMS FOR SALE/TRADE/EXCHANGE/SWAP/GIFTS

Please refrain from requesting the exchange of personal details either on the forum, via PM or email; particularly for the purposes of selling/trading/exchanging/swapping or giving as gifts.

I didn't want to draw attention the the particular post for obvious reasons

Thanks Mumzy
Felt good wearing my new shoes for the 1st today, feel so much better that the legs have been defuzzed and the grey bits have been covered on my head, I will be glad in June that I have already paid for my ticket and as for the campanion set for the fire I wont have to risk burning my fingers putting the coal on the fire.
On the fire front my brother does gardening and brought me a load of trees that he had cut down and chopped them all up into logs for me, so I have a brilliant supply for the fire which saves me putting the oil on too early:T
