A word on comments:

We have always believed that our comments should be open to all and not moderated in any way but this has led to some abuse and a lot of spam.

Because of the damage some of these spam comments can lead to we have now turned the word verification feature on our comments on - this doesn't mean that your comments are now moderated but that 'spam bots' should be stopped (hopefully).

The only times we will step in and delete comments are :

*Overly offensive language

*Off topic/spam

*Press Releases or other advertising

*Too many links (we don't mind linking to something relevant to the article but it has to be relevant)

Please feel free to continue to comment we love to get feedback and the comments are a great way to get your opinions across.
