Stan - that doesn't work since their mail comes to me. Gmail only sees my address, but allows someone to sign in with a similar address.
I had a reply from them on their forum insisting I was receiving the mail by error - that someone had made a typo in their own address. I can't believe they would make the same mistake with several sites, and especially not with their own doctor. We'll see if there are more mails today when Ohio wakes up.
When it happened before the person even opened a Photobucket account using the address. Because the mails came to me I was able to go into that account, ask for a new password, change it, and effectively block it. Stopped a lot of annoying mail coming in. I did that on a couple of accounts they opened - including a dating account they had signed up to. Others were more difficult to kill but I succeeded in the end.
Probably the only the good thing about gmail accounts is how good their spam filtering is.
At least it is taking my mind off the awful weather. Anyone seen the sun lately? I know it is resident in Oz at the mo and causing a lot of problems there, but it would be nice to see it here, even briefly.

Peeping through in Glasgow amazingly enough. I heard on the radio earlier that a lot of produce in the shops has a lower nutritional value because of the lack of sun last year.
I've just reduced my car insurance premium from £71 per month with Saga (£550 excess) to £32 with Mercedes/Aviva (£250 excess)

Lucky you! Apart from a brief glimpse of it at dawn last Wednesday I haven't seen the sun in weeks.
I have just paid for a week in the sun, in February, but even in the Canaries it isn't guaranteed then.

Just a 'Jock' strap for the sake of common decency

Home and car insurance renewals came in, both for around £700.Peeping through in Glasgow amazingly enough. I heard on the radio earlier that a lot of produce in the shops has a lower nutritional value because of the lack of sun last year.

Switched in both cases and they both came in below £300!
(Sunny in Auld Reekie too!)

Still, I only use it for those sites that must have an email even though you only want a look around and then decide they're not what you want.
The gmail in box must be stuffed with c**p by now!
K110+DA40, K200+DA35, K3 and a bag of lenses, bodies and other bits.
Mustn't forget the Zenits, or folders, or...
PPG entries.
