Anyone with eagle eyes may have noticed I've deleted a comment that purported to be an advert for Manchester SCM.  It wasn't!  It was some clever spam produced by copying a block of text from said SCM website and then linking to a website in the USA concerned with selling tyres!  I do wonder just who is employed to do such peurile work - most blog hosts now have 'robot proof' final steps.

If the real Mcr SCM want to add a comment via my blog to advertise their meetings, OK, but not some annoying person trying to sell their own products or "servcies" ... often not quite as innocuous as tyres it has to be said (beware anything with Greek/Cyrilic characters!).
