Search function problems

[Jon]

If I want to search for "Cow Pot wet weather", is there a trick to get it to work? Currently the search function ignores the three letter words so just produces threads relating to "weather".

Use a search engine, rather than the search function on the forum

You could use the following with Google:

"cow pot" wet weather site:ukcaving.com
