I don't know if Lady lettuce or someone else at the Kitchen Garden magazine has set me up, but when i put this website address www.shop.btcv.org.uk. into the computer it came up with a most unexpected array of imformaton. :shock:

I hasten to add this website address is in the, Grow your own beanpoles, section.
Bit of an eye opener i must say .:lol: :lol: :wink:

Sorry Old H, if I click on the link you provided, I get an "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

However if you type the following link, it seems fairly innocous and even mentions growing things:
http://shop.btcv.org.uk

What's the story?

Dear Chantal, i was expecting to find a woodland website, i got the website address out of the Kitchen garden magazine page 33, December issue and i wondered if Lady Lettuce was trying to embarrass a shy country boy like myself :) .

Hello OH
I think that if your browser can't find a site and redirects you to these lists sometimes it means that your PC has picked up some sort of spyware/adware/trojan infection. I'm no expert on this but I suggest that you run clean-up programmes like Adaware or Spybot.

Good morning Compo and John.
Compo i too got the fitness and health website along with a lot of others.
John thanks for yor advice, i'll get someone to have a look at running such a programme for me, i'm even less of an expert than yourself.

I would just like to assure everyone that (grow your own beanpoles) and that website address are in Decembers issue . :?
