Two Bots at once - Co-incidence or what?

Unread post by Old-Guy »

I've just noticed that Bots from both Bing and Google are trawling the forum at the same time - that's a mighty co-incidence, or is it? :?:

[edit] and by the time I'd posted the above, they'd both gone - even more co-incidental.
2012 Subaru Forester - capable but no magic carpet
2011 Grand C4 Picasso VTR+ 1.6HDi - not missed!
1995 Xantia Estate SX 1.9TD in Vert Vega "The Green Lady" - sadly missed
1998 Xantia 2.1 VXD Estate in Mauritius Blue - R.I.P. (terminal tin-worm)
