I find that these messages move too quickly and I cant keep up with them. Have I lost the plot or is there a way round it??

Hi Julie, I suggest that you copy and paste tips onto a file that might be of use later. Keep pressing your Refresh key to update the screen. Hope that helps. Regards Margaret

Depends how many people are posting. A good idea may be to wait until I am around, then as soon as I post on a thread, it just plummets to the bottom. It happens all the time, even on other boards, I post a message or a reply, and everyone does a runner. Maybe its the way I type

If you want to find a particular message again later, open it up and look in the address line at the top of your screen. Make a note of the 6 digit number (this one is 296402) at the end of the address, and next time you want to check that particular message, open any message, highlight the number and overtype the number of the one you want, click Go, and your selected message will open for you. Saves a lot of searching.

You know the feeling then Ruth? It is probably nothing personal, just seems that way

Also 'they' have changed the page to only show 20 messages at a time so they disappear even faster :( Maz. XX
