I think I am gonna start an Acle splinter group! Any one with me?
As someone who works in Suffolk and lives in Norfolk, and who has to pass
the border guards twice a day, I would be able to travel either meets but
would only like to subscribe to one list, have enough email rules to deal
with, sorry to be a spanner in the works.
Thanks
Michael

I feel that the main list could do with being busier, I can't see the
extra traffic from Ipswich members being anything other than a good
thing.
I mean perhaps later if the traffic got so high that it was impossible
to follow a particular discussion thread then it could be revisited and
a split considered.
I can't see why Ipswich specific news would be an annoyance to those
from Norfolk who can't travel (or haven't got the papers to pass the
Suffolk border patrol :-) ) I mean if there is a thread relating to an
Ipswich kit meet they can't make then they only have to ignore those
messages, it's not like you are forced to read each one.
