My pleasure Reece. I think GR have been playing around with the site. Take a lok at the dark bar with the little arrow - don't remember them before!! Cx.

Cynthia, thank you very much - silly me - senior moment I reckon! Have had a look around but need to explore further.

Some odd messages? At the bottom it says 'thread invalid' who or what??

Does anyone know when these came into common usage, please.

Would they have been in use in Wales in the 19th century?

Thank you for your help.
