Maybe you all already know this but I only discovered it yesterday and it's very useful.
When you go into a subject (or into the main index) you get the name of the person who left the latest posting on the right hand side. To the right of the name is a little page icon. If you click on that it takes you straight to the last posting on that subject and saves you going through the pages and scrolling down, hitting end or anything else, just straight to it!
(I originally posted this as an answer in the web problems bit but think it's too good to hide away down there).
Go on then, all say you've known all along!
I found something interesting

Thank you Chantal.
I didn't notice that before.
I've remembered a funny story from when I was at work. The printer had decided to have a hissy fit so I called in IT to fix it quickly as we had deadlines to issue documents. Anyway, the bloke came round, tapped it hard a few times and said "It's ******. I'll come back later."
Anyway, he didn't turn up and we were really stuffed. I phoned back and the person asked what he'd said was wrong with it. I told her and she said he'd been on a course to learn that!!
Oh, the joys of being in the civil service.

Thanks guys now I don't feel quite as thick as I did when I discovered it after all this time. 
Lizzie, your guy must have been on a percussion maintenance course, and failed. You went on it an passed as I recall with your ability to bash out U2 songs with your head.

Well at the risk of teaching all those grannies out to suck eggs, there's something else I found some time ago.
Go to the forum index, scroll down and click on "we have *** registered users". You can then see all the users and sort them out by name, area, amount of nattering etc.
Sadly you will see that Grock, Piglet, Lizzie and I are inveterate natterers!

Hi Chantal
All the people on my last post were a bit weired. Put it down to the nature of the job, which I won't go into here.
As for my particular unique talent, well why not. It passed the time. My 16 year old daughter despares of me. She wanted to go to the next Glastonbury and so did I. She took a hissy fit and threw her toys out of the pram and shouted I couldn't go. I stumped her by agreeing with her. She asked why I wouldn't go with her. My reply was that she would cramp my style. She huffed and flounced out of the room, flicking her long red hair at me!!!!!
She still hasn't forgiven me for not asking the name of the gentleman I was dancing with at the U2 gig last year. Said I was a tart. The only response is
"am I bovvered?"
