It's normal on this forum.

You'd think the admins would do something about it wouldn't you? :roll:

Not if other posts are anything to go by. The thread drift can be so far off topic it comes back on after a trek around the world! Speaking of which...

Tried to get another post back on topic because I felt the post was time sensitive and got this reply from admin:

"Don't worry about it going off topic Juliet, it is a FCF charecteristic.
It is also quite normal for such discussions to be generated."

So tried to show willing and joined in the thread drift on this post ](*,)

I have to say this is the friendliest forum I've come across, joined another the other day just to get a download and the rules were past a joke - amongst others you were not allowed to say thank you as an extra post but had to push the 'thank you' button so the person can gain a 'reputation'.

Thank you :-D very appreciated. It is always good to hear such things :mrgreen:

Many threads that go off-topic to the very great benefit as often some new and unexplored angle emerges from it and if nothing else it raises a smile or two and that's never a bad thing...
