Age is only a number. And as a very old lady once told me "elderly people are only grown up teenagers"!!!!

Ismet,

Make it the 20th of June 2009 - then we can all claim it was because of old age that we forgot!

I know this posting has nothing to do with your get together but you post quite a lot. I have a big issue that I am unable to post anything from fresh. i can reply but when I go to post a topic it says subject too short. I have tried leaving a space after finishing the last word. moving the space bar even scrolling down to the bottom so all the characters have gone and it still says subject too short. I have asked for help 3 times using the contact us, on the web site, but no one has come back to me. Please could someone tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thanking you in anticipation

I think you need to make the heading longer

It does that, just put some space like;



"WANTED:CAR " That does the trick with me.



If I promise that I too will be 40 someday can I come along

Msg 10



When I typed it I put quite a bit of space but it will not show it. Just hold down the space bar for as long as you can!!

Hi Ismet this year on the 7th August at 5 minutes and 6 seconds past 4am the date and time will be 04.05.06.07.08.09. This will not happen again until the year 3009. So should we make it a memorable date for this get together xxxx

It can be very difficult if we were asked to keep the subject line very short, say only 10 characters but the other way round should be dead easy. Suppose you simply want to write only "SALE in the subject line and no more. Now what I would do is write exactly like this:

"SALE (and just to satisfy Izzet this is added on, don't take any notice of it)"

How is that? I would say two birds with one stone

Lili,

Who is going to be up at 4 am ? It must be someone very very special to make me get up at that time

What excuse can I think up to tell the misus? I must put on my worn out thinking cap before I say yes to this one
