Yet again, the contrast in land colour between eastern counties and the
rest is clear to see. There is also some fascinating detail in the high
cloud over the English Channel and nearby areas.


Thanks Mike - I apologise for seemingly appearing unobservant and repeating your
thread later on (Volcano in Wales) but it seems that the ntl newserver I am
using is playing up and missing half the posts to usw.


Absolutely no need for apologies, JPG. I think we all know just how
unreliable some news servers are and NTL (which I sometimes use) has its
bad days quite often. In fact most IPSs are criticised by their users
about missing posts.

I don't know if you have the same problem. I am using text.news.ntlworld.com
and the Wx Cat thread about the quiz, for example, hardly appears on ntl. I use
news.individual.net at work and I can clearly see how many posts ntl is
dropping.


Have you thought of using the German server at home as well? Your username
and password would still work with it. In fact, I'd recommend as many here
as possible use the German server, as on balance it does seem the best
available.
Those who would like to use it need to register here and a
username/password will be emailed to you.

http://www.news.individual.net/

There you will see the registration option. The main requirement is you
use a valid email address in "postings", even if it is only .
You'd clearly have to use a real one for registration purposes.
