    @coccinella - I had that too going thru Google and after being hijacked by some French scammers wanting payment to proceed and then being timed out while I dealt with that.

    When I tried again it said my email was already registered and then it told me I was banned.

    I eventually managed by using another email address and login ID but can now only get in using Microsoft Edge.   I've asked the admins if they can help sort that out.

    I know someone from Rezzers who lives in Croatia had a problem but it has apparently now been sorted out. Maybe it had something to do with the non UK address? I would contact the moderators who seem very friendly and helpful.

    I am already banned 😂. I don't know what happened. Maybe the system at gardeners corner can't cope with the load. I will wait a couple of days and see what happens.

    Coccinella, I have sent you a pm which may help you. I spoke with shiney on GC about a Rezzer who had also been banned and he is sorting it out. I had seen your post and you may have already set the wheels in motion to having your ban lifted but if not the pm has some advice.

    Absolutely @Ladybird4. I didn't want to jump the gun and contact a mod without @coccinella saying it was ok, but it was the sensible thing as they couldn't do it themselves - for obvious reasons! 
    Everyone at G'sCorner has been very welcoming, and I'm sure we'll all be fine once we get the hang of it. Many people find it a bit 'busy' but that's largely because of the separate, fixed threads for various topics, and gardening has a lot of variety in that respect. It's something I've always thought should have happened here as most of the options were too vague and we ended up with so many queries about the same thing over and over again. The search facility was often totally useless too.
    Laurel hedges anyone?  :D
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
