Thanks for that j; I've just read and indeed commented on that thread  . While we're off subject, I see you have tagged me on this thread (hope I haven't committed a faux par saying so). I'm not sure how to do this, did look around but couldn't find anything. Is that done by 'following' someone? , if you want to tag someone, press the 'quote' button on top right hand corner when you place a comment(IE you are effectively quoting a quote, if that makes sense  ). If I'm still clear as mud, pm me & I'll go through it step by step. It's a useful tool to use as a reference through a thread & cetainly doesn't mean a faux pas, well I certainly never used for such a purpose

star dust Someone told me recently to put @ before the person's name. Strangely, I have to type stardust, not star dust or it doesn't work.

Well, to quote myself for the second time today - I tried it and selected preview post and it didn't appear as a tag - but when I actually posted it worked so here's one for j too! j

Member's have usernames (which they sign up with) and names which they appear under on the forum. Most of them are identical, but some are not. Mine would have been the same but the system wouldn't accept spaces in a username at signup.

Not sure the missus will like it though, she always says one of me in the house is quite enough.....not sure if that's a compliment or not, but I never dared to ask

Those stage 4s have been like that a couple of days at least now, so could be fairly imminent (with a bit of luck).
