    Just remembered: I forgot to answer Mark's query as to whether the date you'd chosen in a few weeks time for upgrading, patching or whatever it is suited me. Since I shall probably have gone to bed by the time the work starts, any day and any time will suit me. Just ring if you need help.
    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.

      Thanks for all your efforts here and on the printed pages site.

        The name may not change, but is the title still bold, even if you've read it?
        Looks like all behaving now (I'm not going to worry about staying logged in on my Mac despite a restart and quitting Safari: probably a setting in that system as quitting won't necessarily have cleared the cache/site history etc).

        And yes: thanks as ever to Andrew.

          The times on the posts should be in BST - despite the note at the bottom of the page indicating GMT. I think vBulletin regards a time zone as implicitly implying 'daylight saving' when appropriate, so it doesn't recognise the term 'BST'. There's more discussion on this thread.

            Yes. As I write the forum is reading: All times are GMT. This page was generated at 12.02. But 12.02 is actually BST not GMT.​

              Thank you both for the explanation.

              When I worked in government communications we always worked on GMT wherever we happened to be in the world - it was called Z -time, and all messages were timed 'Zub...09.00' etc. This was changed to Zulu....09.00, when it was realized that Zub in Egyptian is VERY rude!

                      Cache clearance time again, Andrew?

                          ... hello - something wrong on 'what classical music are you listening to' - last person there credited is me, but with anorak's avatar. Actually last person there is anorak...

                            That's because I spotted it and cleared the cache (again!)

                              Same cache (so filling up very quickly) or a different one (different thread)?
                              Not sure (nor do I need to know, ha ha) what the process involves.

                                One cache; it involves selecting a maintenance option marked 'clear cache' (or similar). Not a big job.
