Hi there,
I thought I would drop you a line to say I found my posting to uk.music.guitar on your site.
I have no problem with that but thought you might like to know a little more.
A few people tried posting to me at melvynh@gxn.co.uk, the straight ISP address and via melvyn@melvynhiscock.com. Most got through OK but a few only came to the @gxn address (the one without my cock to put it another way!)
I am pretty sure I am losing mails this way but have not got the time to investigate although I will be changing ISP soon as mine us not too good for certain things.
My nephew tried to get timhiscock@hotmail.co.uk and that was blocked and my partner has trouble from her company.
I have wondered if a good US attorney would be able to get me one of those multi-million dollar settlements for slander, after all my name is my name. It was good enough for my dad, good enough for his and so on back hundreds of years, and it is not obscene.
it sort of reminds me of the old Monty Python joke (Monty Python's Big Red Book) "Arthur Penis would like to announce that he is to change his name through deed poll to Art Penis."
Best wishes,
Melvyn Hiscock
