You learn something new every day.
Now if only I could Bring down these Blue boxes that you all seem to do I might get a lot better a this posting.
TT111 Why are you being nice I am beginning to start worrying that you are going soft.

The blue boxes are simple also, Peter. Again at the top right of each post (every one this time) there is the option to 'Quote'. Simply click on this option over the post you wish to quote, and it will begin your reply with that quote, including the code that puts it in the blue box. If you wish to cut down the words you want to quote, simply erase the ones you don't need with your cursor, being careful not to erase any of the coded bits on either side of the quote.

Why am I being nice? Must be July 21st.
I apologise, in advance.

Look, Pete - I've quoted Tarky, and by doing that, have included the original quote of yours.
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

You've erased the code at the start of the quote, Peter. It's vital you leave that in, or the boxes won't appear.
I apologise, in advance.

Don't mess with any of the type that comes into the panel when you quote, Peter. And make sure your cursor is right at the bottom of the panel, underneath all of the type, before you start typing.
I apologise, in advance.

Your bit IS there, Pete, but you put it INSIDE the quoted bit. You should have written it OUTSIDE. (Not outside in the garden, before you go and do that...)

Ah! Roger's ahead of you there, Peter - he doesn't have one.
I apologise, in advance.
