    I joined my local group about 4 weeks ago, having read about it on this site, and some items have gone.

    I also joined last week another group for my father, who does not use the internet as it scares him (he is 78) but is happy to watch over a shoulder, and some of his stuff has gone as well.

    My group very fast from applying 2 hours or so, must have hit it right.

    My fathers group about 12 hours or so.

    All I can say is the Mods on the ones I belong to do a great job, well done.

    ..... Does anyone know if there is a search option on Yahoo for Freecycle where you can check the frequency of peoples posts in case they are posting a Wanted for an item more than once a month?

    For example Mrs A says "Wanted: A pair of green socks"
    Without having to physically go back through the pages and pages of messages is there a search for Mrs A's messages?

    If you do know of it can you she me how to do it please!!
