The song and behaviour of the UK's favourite bird is being affected by light and noise pollution, according to research from Southampton University.

    Now that's strange. There was a post on here yesterday by EasyT which seems to have disappeared, without any explanation! 

    Is this a case of over-moderation I wonder, as it was criticising the amount of lighting on a club site?

    It's even more strange, Nelliethehooker, because earlier I added a post which created a link to the BBC website about Robins and light pollution. If I go back via 'My profile' I get the original post, but once I try add to the thread only see only this new post! What on earth is going on!

    Why am I not surprised that this thread appears to be duplicated

    This is the last post I see when I open Thread 2 - the short one - though My Profile.

    Except I tried to add a post to Thread 1, after quoting EasyT in thread 2, and my new post appeared in Thread 2 (the one with less posts in the listing!). I've suggested the moderators delete one of the threads just to see what happens to the other one!  Maybe that will make the whole forum work properly again!cool

     And now I can't see Nelliethehooker's post mentioning that he sees different comments to me!
