Help an old fart out...please. I've tried putting a linky in but it doesn't work cus it's too long. ::)

Mr Moderator, can you please pin this if someone gives an answer so we all know how to do it for the future. Fanks.

OS.

I got used to my arthritis,
to my dentures I'm resigned,
I can manage my bifocals
but Christ I miss my mind.

Seems to be some quirk with the board . . . never seen any other links not work.

I think the link was just too long for this board. Either that or the word 'Boskamp' was too much for it. OS.
