scouse, I told you that you had to put the name between the ( )'
thats only if you want those to show up in the post, sorry about that,
back in the day, years ago, the founders of this group made a request
to all regular posters, that request was to add at the beginning of
your post, add this to your post abaoi, or <abaoi>, that was just to
Id. you as a serious abaoi poster and that it was not c/p or spam. Its
your choice if you want to do this or not.
I will test 6 more Ola posts without the name between the ( )
marks..............................EH
