No mate, unless you were in the thread before it got deleted.
In which case you can check it in your e-mails, if you receive notifications.

Sorry I should have said, I wanted to see posts made by other members that had been deleted, the answer though is obviously no.

As all 'bars' are now non smoking you could now shorten your question to shouldn't you be in a bar somewhere.
Actually it is to soon as I would suggest that most bars would smell of stale cigarette smoke for some time yet.

You're probably right. I gave up smoking in March and have managed to control my self-righteousness quite well so far

No problems Phil.

We are not Gods, just other members of the community that have been asked to umpire: and many a nice guy has left modding because of the abuse we often get for trying to keep the peace.
