Mike, I hope you don't mind but I've moved this to French Car Chat...

Steve,

That timing was perfect! I can just see you, moouse pointer poised over the submit button, just waiting for the bong! By hook or by crook, you got the first post of 2009 in. Toby, you came in avery honourable second!!!

Strange thing with the forum time. It's an hour fast but I don't know why :wink: I've checked the board settings, the server clocks and all looks fine so why it remains still on BST I've not a clue....

I did indeed wait for the right moment, not just here but on several other boards too.
It almost went horribly wrong as the message was formatted and on preview (whew!) the formatting was all wrong for this board. Very quick edit with only seconds to go.

I'm off for a lie down now :D

Seriously, spent most of the past 24 hours listening to music on YouTube and housekeeping. Bugger festivities :twisted:

I'll have a poke around with that, fixed it on another board recently but can't remember what I did.

Not at all Jim. I hope you didn't mind that I originally posted where I did on account that most people don't read the other sub-topics such as this one.

I could be wrong but will it not be your own profile that's set to the wrong time zone?
