You may .

I have been having difficulty making a post to the web site for some weeks now.

With the help of David and the web designer the problem is now resolved.

As can be seen by the test post you replied to.

The issue appears to have been one of web site compatability with my internet explorer 9.

regards

I’ll put my pencil away then.

Careful, Roy, it made me chuckle but watch the humourless ones don’t accuse you of wasting valuable thread space. Did you happen to get the answer to question six by the way ?

Nice interchange of Olde worlde manners in posts 2 and 3.

Alan, the answer to No 6 is 42.

I can take the swords and arrows, I’m pretty thick skinned.

I remember years ago , on another forum, someone started a new post with ” just testing, please ignore”

that thread went on for 2 or 3 years and the post count went sky high.

Ever get the feeling you’ve started something !

Dont worry guys there’s enough questions come out of my swarf factory every day with one thing and another not going quite as I planned them.

There will be plenty of questions to test you all in good time.

Dont put your pencil away just yet Roy .

I’m not quite olde worlde Bob but not a youngster either. somewhere in the middle ish.

Ish seems to be the tolerance worked to whist I’m learning how to mill ! ! !

thanks to all for keeping me entertained on this brilliant site.

Hi

Unfortunately no,

A few years after this the site servers crashed and burnt and everything was lost.

Terry,

I think I may have failed by misquoting it.

Hello,

Just wanted to add TEST REPLY.
