It seems to me that many people start their appeal by saying "trying to find or looking to find informatiion on Joe Bloggs" and then rattle off lots of information that they actually have without saying what it is they are looking for now. Ending with "can any one help" is pointles and vague. Help with what? Like many others, I have a few years experience that I am happy to share but if you want a favour, do yourself a favour and ask something fairly specific. Sue |

Good point Sue, Also some people just jump straight in without reading anything first and post their T2F message on the wrong board. I have stopped reading them if they are not on the right board. Lynne |
