Hi Rich, welcome to the forum mate. Yes, I've been looking at the time problem. I could understand it if the forum was based on US Eastern time (i.e. 5 hours behind) but for some bizarre reason this one is around five and a half hours behind...
I can't change the time in the forum as a whole, but if you click on Profile at the top of the page (after you have signed in) you can change the time for your logon. Under Preferences (near the bottom of your profile) there is a box called Time Offset. If you type "+5.5" in that box, you'll be right (within a couple of minutes). I think this is designed so that people in different time zones around the world can set their own time.
Cheers, MM2.

I would like to know how Rich got away with saying 'cock' on the above post! lol Jasper when I first put the posting on 'cock' was not on my message, it said 'thingy'. I guess Lawt/MM2 read my posting and realised what context the word was said in so he changed it

Yes, you're absolutely right Rich. Anything which might relate to the male anatomy is automatically replaced by the word "thingy". I amended it - just think of the confusion last year if all my reports had read "Paul Hurry made the start but thingyed it up on the last lap" ;D I've never heard of a "poon" either... don't know where that one came from. I was going to replace "Coventry" with something appropriate, but maybe we'll leave that one until the season starts!

I could think of a few words to replace the name Coventry but I'm sure they wouldn't be allowed. ;D

Took a look at poon in the dictionary --- you can have either a large indo-malayan tree !? or it's Australian slang for a simple or foolish person, --- take your pick. Can't see too much of a problem really lol.
