Dear Jack,
I have sold my Fiesta for £400. IMHO it was worth the money, but this
all started coz I dared to intrude on this sacred NG and advertise my
car?

Yes... but that's the whole point of usenet; look at any AUP, and you'll
generally see it described as a 'robust medium', with all ISPs factoring in
enough red tape and waffle to ensure that there's no recourse to them
overall as far as possible, and that you understand that as far as possible,
"you're on your own, sonny".

Big Mistake which I shall never do again.

Heh

I get the impression that like me he who dares encrouch on this
hallowed NG turf is simply not wanted? Then what the **** is a
Newsgroup for, 3 or 4 people only??

Nah, that's just the way it comes across... "The pen is mightier than the
sword", just as posting a witty well thought out put down in these parts is
far more effective than a stumbling "Come kick my head in, you feckers",
hastily typed out repost.

If it helps, bang out the rage infested reply, then just save it til the
morning... still seething?

By all means post it.

I learnt the hard way too when I first stumbled onto usenet... ;-)

I am not the only one who needs to 'chill out'. You however seem far
more intelligent than Dervman, and yes it was worth £450, and will be
going strong for a few years to come.

Thank you for telling me I have a ****ish attitude, I am not trying to
impress anything on anyone, only that I will not be told by anyone to
**** Off and not post on an NG!

On the last subject Tilbury, Canvey Island, and Grays are **** holes
like most counties have. Ever heard of Coggleshall, Colchester, The
Leighs, Chigwell, Great Dunmow, Little Hallingbury, shall I go on??
Not Paraideses but far from **** Holes and I can name a few of them?

Well, your neck of the woods is sort of inbetween IME...
