Yes, isn't it terrible to live in a wealthy consumer-capitalist society with widely-enjoyed high standards of living? Isn't it awful to be able to take for granted the necessities of life, and to be forced to worry about such luxuries as being able to enjoy hot water at the twist of a tap?

Oh dear, I haven't got the quoting right after all...at least, it doesn't look like everyone else's quotes, quite...

Sigh... I don't get why my quotes don't go in bold with "Originally posted by ..." at the top!
Try again (manually will have to do for now):

Just above each post there's a line of icons. The one on the right, a bit like a set of speach marks, is "reply with quote". It'll open a reply window with the whole of the post quoted with the 'Originally posted by:' bit and bold. If quoting anything lengthy it's better if you delete anything you're not specifically responding to.

Hey, wow! Thanks, Alan Cresswell! ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Really appreciate your answer to my problem, as I was reading through the thread "Answers to questions you didn't need to know", in the hope of posting my question at the end. (Thought I'd better read the thread first!) But there's 15 pages in that thread, and after reading for a while I was only up to page 3...LOL. So I thought it'd be ages before I could find out!
Gonna try and quote myself again now...

I cannot expect people to believe “
Jesus loves me, this I know” of they don’t believe “Kelly loves me, this I know.”

Editing test.
Right. I am editing this post to see what happens if I press the edit button after the ridiculously narrow edit window has passed.
