On the left hand side of the screen you will see "bookmarks" this is where you will find your bookmarks for future reference. I hope this makes sense... Linda

	No, not really. Linda does have a useful point, but, if tomorrow she came along and deleted her post, what'ld you have then? So bookmark them, but also copy and paste them. Paste them into a file called Thread-Info.txt or whatever. Then you'ld have them all together, and could also "find" text like "WW1", "grandad" or whatever to locate the thread in your file of threads.
