Forum Request

Is is possible to alter the config of the software so that if someone quotes someone elses post, the name of the original poster is displayed in the quote?

I think this may be possible as I have seen it on other forums.

Thanks

Years ago there was a UK police officer who was prosecuted for employing an illegal.

Re: New labels coming to petrol pumps

Having spent a lot of my working life on petrol forecourts I know garages will not carry all these different types. Too expensive.

This could involve new tankage, new pipeage..........

The vast majority of garages will stick to the current 3 - 2 x unleaded and 1 diesel.

Re: New labels coming to petrol pumps

Instead of jumping up and blaming the EU, why don't you conduct some research online? With the multiplicity of fuels available these days, with more variants and additives coming out all the time, I would have thought the more you know about the type of fuel you need to buy for your car the better?...

Re: Roaming charges (Ed. POST BREXIT)

Proof that it is just more scaremongering from the remoaners.

Sack the Governor of The BOE he is the worst scaremongerer - no good having a remoaner in his position.

Everytime he opens his mouth the exchange rate goes south

Re: Carrying food from UK to Cyprus

Answer yes.

The only problem I ever had was taking Red Leicester cheese in hand luggage.

When its scanned it looks like explosive and then you have to have a full search og hand luggage - put the cheese in the hold - no problem
