Thank you for the threaded messages. This is different from others I have seen, but I shall persevere. Question: Why is the thread title the same as the members name? This means that I have to physically look at the messages to find out what they are. Can we have a thread title which states the CONTENT of the message and not who sent it, please? Look forward to hearing comments from you and other members. Vera, Manchester, Lancs

There was no thread topic before so we just copied over the persons name as the topic for the old entries.

As we said, its going to take some days for the new layout to bed down - we cant create the threads from the old messages as there was no ability to reply. Have a look at the few messages on the tips board and you will see how the new version is already working and will make things a lot easier in the future.

Thank you Stephen I think I know what you mean. I had thought about doing that but didn't want to mess things up for anyone. I shall try it when I put a message on the board. Vera, Manchester
