I don't want to upset anyone , what with the recent tragedy but when your having a go at graham for his insensitive post, can you please trim down the previous emails. As a recipient of the forum in digest form, I get the same posting, many times over, the same text that has been posted in the last 6 digests several times. Now I know that there is good reason to include previous posts in answer to a reply so that others can see what you are on about, but for a thread that takes several days and is replied to by so many, isn't about time that some of you cut down the original posts a bit?
