modern farmer revives old irish famine variety

He's done well to get enough potatoes to sell after last years summer.

And I hadn't realised supermarkets had been around for so long to be honest 

I love stories like this! Well done him! One up for Ireland!

Miss beck the story says he is in England.

No it doesn't Jon Cob aka thegreatgardener - County Antrim is in Northern Ireland.  Oh dear, you're living up to your compatriots' reputation for geography at least

Jon, do you have different hats when sitting in your little room? One for each identity for each chair?

I think just one, with a D on it. What a strange man, using different accounts on the same thread, must have forgot to logout and relog under the right one. Still I'd say you'd have to be a little weird to have several accounts on this forum, it's hardly the most arguementative place here, surely the pillock would be better served trolling forums populated with teenagers? There surely must be a webmaster/ forum manager here? It really is very simple to identfy all accounts using same or similar ip addresses and ban them?

Ben -as I said elsewhere-he is probably using a shared computer-so it is unlikely to be that easy

Oh it'll be very easy, even if it's multiple computers say in a library or public place, the first two numbers in the IP range will be the same. The board moderator could simply check for those IP's and see which accounts are accessed from that particular range. For example if he's in New York, the IP will corollate this, a quick check on the posts by these accounts could soon spot him. He has a particular style. The reason he is on here is because nobody is doing that. Most boards would have weedled him out and banned him by now.

Ben-am composing something now

Ben-can you adjust you settings to accept private messages-thanks

and where do you find that? I've looked under all the settings and no joy, this forum uses the strangest settings page I've ever had the mispleasure to use. (And I've been on forums 10+years) It's not intuative at all, could do with a complete overhaul tbh.

Go to settings-go to public profile-there is a box to tick that says you will accept private messages

Hi, BrummieBen ,go to top of page ,between HELP and Public profile click on settings and go down the page ,in the gray box tick it  .hope this helps

Derek

I don't know what you guys are looking at, but I have no option on any of the 'click to open' settings page that says accept private messages!!

There's a "Report to Moderator" thingy at the bottom of the page, wouldn't that work if he was reported there? Just wondering.
