The original was cross-posted, that's why. Now you've found uk.d-i-y your life will improve immeasurably.

Yes I was aware of uk.diy got a new computer and searched the usenets groups for diy and at first this group didn't appear only the free.uk.diy, so I initially thought this group had changed names, then looking for another group a few days later I found this group hadn't gone after all. I do prefer this group I must say - don't know why but there we go

Don't worry, you'll soon find the eejits to avoid.
