Second thoughts - could it be related to someone revealing a member's real name?  I mention no names, only offer this as a possible explanation.

Double apologies Forum software limitations mean threads have to be dissected post by post and re-attached post by post. Now all re-instated I hope.

Rgds Wilko I couldn't possibly comment, as I'm sure you know. Back to the topic of guide books...? Have you read any good reviews lately? I don't use them in their paper version, but I do use a web listing which allows visitors to mark the holiday accommodation on their return. By the same token, the owner can also mark the visitors and both sets of reviews are available to prospective visitors and owners when an enquiry is made through the web listing. So far so good for us and all ratings to date show 5/5 Clair, a Real Virtual French Person La vérité est si obscurcie en ce temps et le mensonge si établi, qu'à moins d'aimer la vérité, on ne saurait la reconnaître.

So - you're getting 5/5; what does your average visitor get? Unlike the rating by visitors, the rating by owners is fairly new to the web listing. So far I have had not complaints to make about visitors from that web listing and they have got top marks from me. I have had several bookings for the coming months through that same listing and I keep my fingers crossed that the comments will stay positive .
