I think I can remember the lo thing, tuning72 used to be here and has just sprung to mind, ring any bells? In fact I once thought that bm was him with a new handle! Not sure where t72 came from.

I think that was Willie....I often wondered if that was short for (Hel)Lo...?
Willie - can you enlighten us...?!?

It was just 'ello, surely?

I remember waaaaay back in the beginnings of the messageboard, there was definitely a character who began his posts with 'Lo' as a greeting.

I thought it was Les, but obviously I'm awry on that.

It's really bothering me, now!

Goodness me, so it was!

As for the post date - when the server crashed some time ago, all the old posts lost their time stamp, so they all appeared to have been posted several years before the internet became what we now know it to be.
