Most postings made are "Friends Only", so if you want to read you'll need to get me to friend you - which aten't gonna happen unless I know you or you're recommended to me by a mutual friend. People who I don't know from Adam who attempt to friend me without good reason, or who appear to be doing nothing but trolling, will be added to my banned users list so that they don't show up in my pages anywhere... it might not solve the problem but it makes me feel better :-)

Disclaimer
As I am an adult, some topics covered will occasionally be of an adult nature. I will not moderate the contents of my journal just to cater for kids whose parents don't keep an eye on what they are doing on the internet. If you or your kids have a problem with the content of my journal, then don't read it.
