yep I noticed this morning. well I say morning. about 1PM. reported to moderator. the wording is remarkably similar to those spam emails. All I can say to that is DELETE. not something I want to find violating a WOODTURNER'S Forum. lol

how's things?

All sorted now guys.

Been out for today.  most get deleted before they start but only if we're around to do the sorting!

Sorry everyone. I've been on the road demonstrating all weekend, and east sussex has no O2 connection for my wifi.

All spammers now removed and new registrations will from now on be via Admin approval only.

Sorry folks.
