    I think we've struggled a bit as it is now "Reply" to quote someone where as on the old forum it was "Quote".

    If you only want to reply to a bit of a post, you can highlight that bit (like you would for copy&paste) and another "reply" button appears in grey, which you can press to just quote that bit:

    Don't call yourself Mrs Thickie, Cath.

    We all have different skills.

    If you were truely thick you wouldn't be trying to do something new.

    I think with maturity comes the ability to ask that silly question that as a youngster you daren't ask for fear of how it might look.
    (for maturity, I don't necessarily equate that with age before I get lamped ;) )

    As I frequently say to myself nowadays, age is just a number :):), just wish it was a lower number ;);)
