You must be sick of hearing me say this, but the move to the new Brew Cabin will have to be undertaken as soon as possible.

Every day since xmas, I've spent an average of 1hr and 5 mins deleting spam and its promoters from the database on which the Brew Cabin runs, and while it's not been too much of a problem in this relatively quiet spell, come the Spring rush, there's a genuine risk that I just won't have the time.

I have been trying to get a local techie whizz-kid to help with the implementation, but he seems incapable of working:

a) in daylight
b) outside a fug of cannabis fumes

...so I'm back to trying to do it myself.

So: can I have a few volunteers to nosey around the new Brew Cabin and see how they think it's working? The url is still the same as it was: if you can't remember, PM me.

I'm aware it's not everything we'd want it to be, but if it can run the forums without falling over, and save me having to waste an hour each day purging Russki and Merkin knobheads from the system, I can start doing the peripheral bits and pieces as and when the time arises.

Always willing to help out Giles, Can of IRN-BRU and a Black Pudding roll with red sauce will cure any hangover.

How bad can 6 Babby Shams be anyway mate, that's not really a hangover more of a late night.

We`ve got a site next to the Terrex Factory, next time I`m there I`ll PM you with some photos.
