I've noticed a lot of people here of late posting their email addresses. Just to let everyone know that this is not a good idea.
If you want someone to email you, best to use "at" instead of @. I know people will have to type out the email addy but this will help reduce possible spam attacks as there are programmes that are called spambots that rove public forums looking for email addys. Nasty little programmes and sometimes it's also a trojan or some type of virus they will try to send your way too. Just thought I'd mention this as this is a public and not a closed forum.
Enjoy the weekend,
Paul.

yes good idea also if you are selling something on ebay and you get people trying to sell phones/tv's etc and you reply to them they spam you like no other so yeah be careful.
