I’ve asked Dawn once again about one of the moderators being allowed access privileges to the gallery. Unfortunately it can’t be opened up to none employees of the company. I totally understand and knew the answer before I asked… so there we have it I’m afraid! We have to live with these intrusions until they can be deleted by Dawn. In fairness we don’t get many… let’s hope it stays that way!

We've travelled this road before: I think there are considerable complications in altering another's website without granting very complex systems to permit it; whereas forums are easier.  Note Jones, talking about something he knows almost nothing about.... But we HAVE been here before, and neither TAPC nor Warners is one little bit keen on enabling this.  I suppose they might, if the onslaught were more than they could handle, but so far it's manageable.  Mind you - if the company would like to employ a few of us, on entirely satisfactory financial terms, I for one would be happy to oblige them - a nice extra income to supplement my pension would be very welcome.  Especially if Ms Reeves imposes further taxes on my cigars....  Leaving it with them, then..... don't forget, I asked first.....

Reeves will be doing you a favour with such a tax...although after a lifetime on cigars....what difference?

Precisely: it's all FAR too late to benefit me, and anyway, one doesn't inhale with big cigars - you'd die really rather quickly.  Need I point to the late George Burns, inveterate cigar smoker, died at 100?  Groucho Marx, 87?  Jimmy Durante, 86/7?  Winston Churchill, 91?   My case rests: its full of cigars.

Latest crop of piffle - how to make absolutely sure I will never buy from Temu: not that I was intending to.

I’ll second that. There have been some particularly awful adverts recently, and not good to see stuff on the Gallery. I did put a comment on one as offering drugs which could be used for end of life care/euthanasia.  Surely this sort of dangerous rubbish should be reported to the police? Also re Temu…don’t they advertise on this site? I have read enough negative reports about them not to ever want to use them. Again, thanks all you zappers who remove this rubbish. 🙏👏🏼

A huge thankyou to all the moderators for clearing the decks, yet again, of all the awful posts, such despotic behavior, bad enough here in the forum, but the pictures in the gallery, terrible. There was a bundle when I popped in early this morning and again this afternoon. You do a fantastic job. Thanks again.

I lost count at 35 - don't know how many others removed - we've had a bit of a repetitious attack today.  Probably half-term in India or somewhere....

I took out about 12 or so in two sessions.  I wouldn't blame Temu, they probably have no idea.  Im guessing it's people setting up fake websites to get people's Temu account details and thus steal from those who actually connect.  But it's so tatty looking I don't think anyone would bite.
