Hello, Im new to greyhound racing, our country is at infancy stage in the sports in any case. I therefore just wanted to ask a few questions if its ok with you, hopefully it is. Anyhow I an sending this to just check if the email is still valid. Thank you *name taken out
Botswana
my email is *email taken out
********************** I *took out those details (me being respectful I suppose). I was not going to reply as I don't have a lot of spare time but mainly because I don't correspond with people that randomly contact me. As I just had to give my opinion on another topic (NSW new advertising rule), it came to mind that it would be a good idea to now share the email that I received a couple of days ago. Not sure if any one else got one? The administrators on this site I imagine can view the email, and if you would like to make contact and make any suggestions, I will leave that up to your office Greyhound-Data. Don't want to be worried about the email, but these days when you are dealing with a computer as a person, you have to have a line. p.s. must go as I stayed on longer that I wanted to on the computer, but I always make the time if it is worth it, just takes me a while when I sit down and put some thought into saying something, and I will have to pay for it from a being behind point of view. Not having a whinge but just an example I suppose - of me definitely not wanting to start up random conversations.

Jeannette, I got exactly the same message via email and PM. I haven't replied either, as it sounds a bit fishy. If the person wants to find answers to his questions, the forum is the best place. Are there really greyhounds in Botswana ?
