Steven & Roger this is fantastic.....
Have done copy writing, proof reading & research work in the past ....Strong on word & excel (once i get a copy off a mate) but my photography skills are non existant
I am more than happy to volunteer as much time as needed (have plenty of that)

Hi Hartos
Great to have you as part of the team! Welcome.
I will send via PM the two docos that show you what you need to do for stage 1 in extracting data from the ABc posts. There is a short course for those who already know about MSWord and MSExcel. There is also a stroke by stroke set of notes for those not sure or with no experience. Both end up at the same place.
Have a look and see what you think. I look forward to seeing your trianing docos.
The first stage doesn't require you to do more than identify posts that contain information relevant to horticulture (pruning, repotting etc) and inspiration. You don't need to judge whether it is valid or not. That comes in the next stage.
If you don't like this stage and want to only come in when we get to the checking of what gets written in a later stage, that is fine, just let me know.
It would be good if you could PM me your email address as it will make the work go much more smoothly and makes record keeping easier for me too. My contact details are in the notes I'm sending.
Cheers
Roger
