I have noted that the date and time do come up briefly before minutes, hours, days, months is displayed. Can this be changed or is it a default setting Gavin??

There is a setting to use normal dates and times instead of "relative" times. If enough people ask for it I'll happily change it. Speak up if you want to keep it as it is or change it to dates and times.

As far as I am concerned I really dont give a hoot - its a great site and I look at it from the positives...come to think of it I didnt think there were any negatives - maybe when this guy is as old as me then he will realise that time and date are not important...in fact the only two dates which I ever find important are my birthday and Christmas day!

Cheers - figured I'd put it forward for the group anyway just in case it's something the peeves others off too. Constructive criticism's always welcome. Did a quick Google of mike0077 - guess the DTG comes from his time playing 1st person shooters, or I could be wrong and it's from Cougar Passions :P Anyway - welcome to the forums Mike, nice introductory post - doubt you'll find any cougars here but you'll find some gold diggers ;)
