Test fail #1.

You found the quote box, but then managed to include your reply in it, which is not quite the result you're supposed to aiming for.

Submit post.

Then click 'reply with quote'.

Then insert a reply at the end of each sentence, like I did in post #10 using either the typed [ QUOTE] boxes, or those and the quote box from the second line in the greyed area.

Meanwhile, I'm off to hunt out the birth registration you've got for Walter.

Good luck
