"It is only possible to post during the forum opening hours: 12 to 2pm and 8pm to 10pm"
Pasted from <www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/forum/newtopic>
I've also seen that as a footer to several mod postings
Go page 1 of the postings list and you see one labelled
"Forum Opening Hours and General Information."
where it says:
"Benefits and Works Forum opening times
The forum is open to new posts:
Monday to Friday
2:00pm - 4:00pm and 8:00pm - 10:00pm"
Pasted from <www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/forum?view=topic&catid=10&id=97744>
The post itself is shown as 1 week and 3hrs ago and there does not appear to be any more recent timings shown below the original post.
What are the opening hours for the earlier session?

After some digging, I have found the message you were referring to. It is only produced when a registered user attempts to create a new post when the forum is closed to new posts. I have asked for it to be updated to the correct times.
The Mods do not see these messages, so I had to wait for the forum to close and log back on as a user.

I've sent an email to the office with a screendump attached designed to prove that I'm not crazy! Can't see how to attach a pic here and I haven't a convenient picture account to link to from a forum posting.bro58 wrote: I haven't the foggiest what you are on about c,

Oops! I wrote the first post, hit send and my machine assured me, with exclamation marks, that it had not been able to get that message sent.
So I thought a little, trimmed the message a little, and posted a revised version of my original text - which ended up as two posts suggesting that I had read your first reply (which, of course I hadn't) but not believed it.
Result - confusion. Sorry about that - I wasn't intending to pester that way.
