Not much to read on the Newsgroup this past week I'm afraid
I make it a grand total of only 29 postings...including a thread of 8 postings started on July 28th on Gord's attendance at
the Toronto Blue Jays match on July 27th (a game where I believe grown men play the old UK children's game of rounders!!)
the thread starts with a posting by Cathy at:-

As usual in my Newsgroup links click on "options" then select "view thread" to see all of the replies including a nice
draft dodging anecdote by ex Byrds and GL band person Richard Harrison
add 8 for a thread commemorating Derek (zippoman)'s birhday
and 13 from a thread on who is going to see Gord in De-troy-it starts at

Anyway apologies for not keeping up to date recently with my highlights feature and weekly chat room reminder
which probably explains why only the most regular have been in recently
including the irrepressible Steve from Sydney in the few hours when he is mot watching football
another game where grown men chase about a pitch after a ball
so the full story remains at

with a self loading Java applet that is stored on my own site
or if you like most now seem to have done have mIRC installed this lionk opens mIRC automatically:-
direct mIRC chat link
I do not understand how servers work but apparently there is a problem at dialexnet.net with the link to their alternative
Java applet so the mIRC or "My" Java applet are currently the only access methods
