Isn't that mainly the photo-heavy threads tho' @raisingirl ?
Yes, it is photos, but if you have a post with the photos and then someone quotes with all the photos it exacerbates the problem to the point, in some cases, where the thread is unreadable. I thought that was what we were talking about - sorry. Maybe I drifted off
Gardening on the edge of Exmoor, in Devon

@Dovefromabove it's not quite the same as a pub conversation. It's unusual for an answer to a question in a pub to come several days later and after other questions or comments have been made. The only time I'm in that situation is when talking to my missus.
@wild edges I didn't realise there were neo-nicotinoids in the flea and tick treatment we give our dogs but I do have to wonder how much of that teaspoonful of liquid, rubbed into the nape of their neck would actually seep out into any water they jumped in. Not that either does that as there are no waterways round here except the odd full ditch after heavy winter rains, if we get them, and neither dog will have been treated since early September anyway.
I shall, however, look to see what alternatives are available.
As for photos, loading a series of them can take minutes here and unless I've knowingly gone to a photos thread such as Gardens Visited, I get frustrated when the same photos are loaded twice because of quoting. Maybe we need an "Easy tips for beginners" thread altho that would assume they look around the site to see how it works before jumping in.

I'm just cheesed off with folk moaning about the site every day. We don't pay to use it, we're not compelled to use it , but it will never be perfect for everyone, so I'm happy to accept what's on offer.

This should be on the 'RTBC' thread. This is the curmudgeon one.

But "I'm cheesed off with folk" ergo , curmudgenonly
The birds which visit our garden are going to have to find their own food from now on. Earlier today I spotted a rat climbing the pole of the feeder. Our neighbour chucks food everywhere for the birds and had rats visiting a few years ago. I mentioned to him that I'd seen them going under his shed and his only reply was "Yes, I know".

Should I swallow a bird now?
