Welcome Kenimalo, I’m Norah and look after the Forum for Ash.
We do allow personal threads on the Forum, a max 3 on the first page to save them overwhelming the crossword threads. I I have amended your heading by inserting @ the to indicate a personal thread. If you were ‘speaking’ to another member you would start the heading @Norah to attract their attention.
Please read my two threads which I have bumped to the top dealing with Duplicate Threads and the Posting Guidelines, I think you will find them useful.
