Thank you GG for your kind and encouraging comments. I feel that the forum is for EVERYONE and not a select few, and it is wrong for certain individuals to be patronising and condescending towards others whose opinions they do not agree with.
I enjoy reading the posts and interacting with like minded members and sharing ideas.
Quite right, jatnikapyar. I'm new as well - I just have verbal diarrhoea. I think one reason that it seems cliquey is that some people (like me) have time to post quite often and do. Others read but seldom post - it takes courage because no-one wants to be belittled or to show their ignorance. I have made daft comments a number of times but learnt from them and soldiered on. On the whole, people are helpful and friendly though we can all slip up occasionally.
