Member Since: May 2011 Posts: 55 Send Message	I am posting this for a friend who appears to be having a problem with her Asterisk connection. There may be a connection with her Norman Eedle seach As I receive more info I will update so she can continue with her search.

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 592 Send Message	I was thinking rather than asterisk she may have meant star, all she said was that "my * is missing" so it could be Star R

	'More' information? More than what?

	Sorry Flick and Lindsey* This is a spoof following on from Tracey. Norman Eedle search. Robert has posted this after a comment Tracey made about losing her asterisk on FB. No harm meant. Just an attempt to be light hearted. <3

	I realised that which is why I have put in an explanation. Anyone can reply with a tongue in cheek response or choose to ignore it. ;-)

	GB for one thing ...... it was started just after the previous thread was raised from the depths! and they were one after the other for a while second ...... a hint might be that it was posted by Wall regardless, there was no need for Flick's comment! sylvia

	You can not judge a poster by their board name - which in this case was not a clue. I am not a Baby but it is part of my board name !! Wall could be genuine as it is a surname after all I only spotted it was not genuine because I had seen the earlier thread which was nudged up because of something said between Wayne/T and Kevin Is this board really the place for this thread?
