I have recently been subjected to systematic bullying over a protracted period on a Yahoo Group. Appeals to the Moderators fell on deaf ears. In the end I had to threaten to take some form of action to protect myself. The whole episode was extremely distressing and I hope never to experience such vicious and unprovoked venom again.

I have a wide range of interests - wildlife conservation - environmental issues - local affairs (not that sort of affair; not at my age!) - local history - heritage transport (as long as it has got wheels - I hate things that fly and things that float make me seasick).
