Only got a phone right now – deffo no Edit Post for OP there. As soon as there’s a comment, it appears. Those fat cat Mods with their air fryers and oh so cool headphones and obscene end of year bonuses ….
Tigger writes, in a private email:
Is Dai 4 real? I’ve found myself asking that question many times over the course of his career.
Dai is a commodity, a brand, a commercial product, capable of shifting millions of units all over the world. He’s been schooled in the dark arts of self promotion and maintaining an image from a very young age, first by his father and then by his husband, one of the most astute operators in the music industry.
I loved Use The Box because it was a raw representation of his state of mind and lived experience. It was definitely 4 real.
I haven’t heard this latest one but all the hype around it makes me wonder.
Well, thank you for pointing out the error of my ways a full twelve hours after realising I had somehow, completely out of character, got it 100% Wrong. Perhaps you’d like to send a follow up letter to The Times?
I can’t speak for Junior Wells, longest serving Mod Intern on the blog, but my wife is 53, I have no CDs at all, and I live on the banks of the Mekong. No Thai sticks, but I do have a jar of homegrown somewhere in the box room.
If the OP isn’t by Junes, it bears all his signature flourishes.
The difference is HP, my trademark typos remain despite my full awareness of the edit after posting fnuction.
As fir you Lodes, my new residence will 1700 kms south of the Gold Coast.

Take that back, my mother was a saint!
Did you specifically find “Edit Post” button on the web page or did you try to edit like a post reply? I am just trying to be helpful here.
Might only be available on a computer rather than a smart phone

It’s there on both computer and smart phone for me.
Lodey – The “Edit Post” button that Dai is referring to is under the “create content” sidebar and not immediately following the post.
Dai is right – you can edit OP’s within the first 15 minutes
Create Content Sidebar whilst spotting a spelling error on the OP after it’s been posted…peers myopically. Nope and nada. Are you, in fact, A Mod?

I was more a rocker – although I always wasn’t sure with regards to “The Who” – clearly a rock group but very much associated with Mods
I’m a mocker

I am selling Team Dai T-shirts, socks and mugs. DM me if interested.
Puts on proper glasses – well bugger me with a leek. In future anyone who has a problem with Dai….hold on, let me think this one through

Tigger can vouch for my existence, I have met him. We have photographic evidence.
Assume Tigger didn’t take it. It’s a bugger pressing the shutter with gloves on.
I’m impressed you took the trouble to change the gender in that quote.

I work in the public sector. Getting pronouns wrong is suicide.
The edit option for posts and articles is available on smartphones, as well as other digital devices. It’s at the bottom of the page.
Click it within 15 minutes of posting and your post will be visible to edit. After that, it won’t.
It has saved me more than once!

Given the state of The Thunderer these days it would get published
I’m pretty certain this is a Junior Wells post.
Currently I’m building a house on the Gold Coast with a Child Bride who somehow I’ve persuaded to live with me and my 25,000 CDs.
You forgot the Thai sticks

I got the Child Bride and 25000 CDs right, though

You forgot the records.
Edith and the Kingpin seems to be very busy at present with all this nonsense.
