Used to be tha case that to search for strings of text, you could put them in speech marks, ie "new forest". That doesnt seem to work now, as I get all posts with either 'new' or 'forest' in them.

Any way around this?

Double speech marks don't work either. Doing a gogle search of a specific web site seems a bit protracted, there must be a simpler way?

Mods - any suggestions?

It does seem a bit of a faf. Maybe the search programme on the new site is a bit rubbish and they are planning to upgrade it.
