Cooeee Jennie Wren. Yes, it's me in the blue wellies!
[glow=red,2,300]Warm Welcome xxx[/glow](said she who's only been in the shed 5minutes herself).
Isn't it lovely....off topic, off topic, off topic and no smacked hands.

Hi Jenniewren Welcome - lovely to see you here I'm sure you'll find lots of your friends and a cosy nest in this pottingshed! Hope all went well at the dentists. Thanks for asking - progress is slow - hopefully things will turn out ok - it's just a matter of time! Look forward to talking to you again. OTB now Afternoon all, Hope everyone is well. I don't feel much like gardening today, been up since 5 and had to go to the dentist this afternoon! Yuk The weather is beautiful today, so maybe I should pop out and dead head a few daffs, they starting to look a bit tatty! How are you feeling Apple? Improving? Jennie

Well we do like to make people feel welcome and at home. Do have a look at the terms and conditions notice as it will tell you what this board is all about. It is not the ideal as we would rather have the Beeb as it was, but at least there's no-one going to smack your wrists on here for being off topic!

Hello Flumpet!! Not sure if we've met before - was thinking I hadn't seen you around for a while. I lurked on the Beeb boards for a VERY LONG TIME and finally joined 'cos I wanted to go to the Harlow Carr meet up I only managed a few posts on the 'long thread' but they've kindly let me into TAPS ;D Welcome from me Jb

Hi Plantaholic! <weneedasmilingandwavingsmileysmiley>
I make that mistake a lot too - I see something I want to reply to and in my over-eagerness completely forget to read what's come next <doh!>

Hi, quick question for the staff, am I allowed to invite my friends over to play? They're all very civilised and won't put their feet on the furniture, I promise! There are a couple of old friends on the Beeb who don't seem to know where we are. I'd love to direct them here but don't want to overstep my "authority". I was told this board was by invitation only (can't believe you let me in! ) so just thought I'd check! Flumpet.x

We have posted the link to here several times on the Beeb but it always gets modded by someone. Anyone is welcome who applies with their BBC id and who used to post on the Sweet Pea and Cold Frame thread or other famous OTGF threads or who just needs somewhere to chat without thought control by Beeb hosts.
We do turn away known sock puppets, trolls, flamers, stalkers and so on.
These boards are just for friendly chat of the kind that used to be OTGF on the Beeb. They are not intended as a fully comprehensive alternative gardening board for Beeb refugees. For that people need to look at A4A, FG or GWD.

Thanks Obelixx, that's pretty much what i thought but just wanted to check Btw, what's a stalker? I know about trolls, socks and flamers but that's a new one on me! Incidentally, is Rhoda on here? Haven't seen her on the Beeb lately. Flumpet.x

A stalker is someone who follows you round and commenting on everything you do. They usually start out quite pleasant and then become a pain in the butt or downright nasty.
Rhoda can't get to the boards at the mo as she's away a lot.
