Thanks guys! I activated Akismet (which was just sitting there in my list of plug-ins)
I did this just before I got your helpful post Samuel and as it seems to have stopped the posts I am going to leave it as it is for now.
I can’t believe I was mug enough to think they were real people finding my blog and liking it so much! I assume these people want my approval to post so they can later spam the hell out of me.
Best

Thank you very much Samuel!
