    Thanks @Jiffy You can quote me, but I can no longer quote anybody. And as the 'Reply' option no longer (single) quotes I guess it's down to copy and paste between quotation marks and add a 'tag'. New system didn't last long before it broke.

    Highlight, select +Quote and get confirmation of being added:

    But try and insert it using the 'Insert Quotes' button (and there has to be a quote for that button to appear) and .........

    Just because something works for somebody else on GC doesn't mean it works for everybody. Just because something worked yesterday doesn't mean it will work again today.

    That's peculiar :scratch: Nothing to do with the problem you're stating, but the fact that I received an alert that said that fat controller had tagged me. Whereas the only tag in his post is to Scrungee!

    Ah, not so weird - allow me to explain.

    I touch type for the most part, and tend to do so around 50-60 words per minute. However, this evening I have been partaking of something that is known around here as 'fuel for a fat bloke' (AKA Bacardi) - when replying originally, I did so at a fair old speed (slightly clouded by fuel) and tagged the wrong person, spotted it just as I hit submit but it was too late....... :redface:

    Worse still, I replied to an email from my car insurer earlier and when I thought I was clicking on send, I actually clicked 'paste' and pasted a screen print of the tomato growing thread....... of course, as sods law dictates I managed to hit send just as I spotted what I had done....

    I'm on holiday! That's my excuse and I am sticking to it! :lunapic 130165696578242 5:
