JC It does help, in that you can delete the opening post of your old defunct threads and whole thread disappears. Good housekeeping. :-D

John, we've always been able to delete our own threads that way so no housekeeping done there I'm afraid.

We used to be able to delete other threads from 'my threads' by deleting our own posts therein. Re-instating that would have been good housekeeping :-)
