  Paul,
  
  Is there any way we can edit posts once posted? I've noted the odd grammar and spelling error creeping in, but there seems to be no facility to correct them once committed.
  
  Thanks.

  Phil there should be an Edit and a Delete facility down in bottom right hand corner. It's there in my case and it used to be there in the old days in all cases...I assumed it was there, if you can confirm its NOT there, we can do something about it immediately after Easter.
  
  ps. Its only there once your logged in of course.

  It does??
  
  Perhaps it's a good thing there doesn't seem to be a delete button around, then ...

  Might be me, but I can't see a "quote" facility?

  Paul,
  
  Just to bump this back up, it seems that none of us mere mortals have the ability to edit or quote posts.
  
  Thanks!

  Being slightly dyswotsit, sorry, I can't spell dyslexic, if I'm doing anything lengthy, not like this one, I'll do it in Word and then copy and paste. I can then spend some time looking at it, it also sorts out my spelling and grammar.

  Phil yes we looked at this..I thought the edit facility had been added...leave it with me until I see what the situation is. Not doing the quotes thing tho, but yes keen to have the edit facility for everyone. Leave it with me for the moment.
