Preamble - I thought I'd start a thread where verbosity was banned! Can you get something of meaning insight or wisdom across but you are limited to only 5 words? Enough of the preamble.

    NO!

    Smilies are not currently working.

    Please could you fix them?
    members are getting quite fractious.
