Originally posted by ferneyhoughgeliebte View PostOh, good hunting, Bbm. Back in 1985, I was greatly tempted by an attic flat overlooking the sea in Hastings: the price was around £18,500 (nicely on the "three times my salary" region back then) - only the prospect of moving from London to East Sussex, together with that of having to commute every morning and evening to and from Eastbourne and that of starting a new job all at once dissuaded me from adding "get Mortgage and buy first property" to the list. I often wonder what it would have been like if I'd bought it: terrific views; wonderful walks - but a bit low on headroom in some parts for someone over six foot tall!

Go down the column on the Left-hand side of the "Settings" page, until you reach "My Settings" - down to "My Account" - and then click on "General Settings"
In the main column on the page you've just got to, go all the way down to "Thread Display Options", then down again to "Thread Display Mode", and click on the Box therein and chose "Linear - Newest First"
... and you'll get what you want.

And don't forget that on the What's New? list, clicking the little blue chevrons to the right of the last poster on each thread takes you to that last post anyway: you don't have to start at Post 1 every time and click through to the last page.It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

The disadvantage of the "Newest First" is that it doesn't mark my own replies as having been read on the "What's New?" page - something that wasn't a feature of the default arrangement. (And one frequently reads posts referring, say, to "post 56 above", when it's now "below".)[FONT=Comic Sans MS][I][B]Numquam Satis![/B][/I][/FONT]
