Thanks guys.
And I'm certainly not claiming to be the only, or indeed the oldest, Crunching Crumblie in the village!
That distinction might well belong to John McLean who signed up for S@H on 21st May 1999 and who [if memory serves me correctly, which it generally doesn't, & sadly the forum of the time has long since dissapeared into the didital void
] it was gave me the moniker of megacruncher.
Anyhoo everyone, please follow my lead & feel free to boast about your longevity as well as your totals.

Yup used to drive me mad that one until I realised that's how phpBB is supposed to work. Anyway I've read it now!
