view the updated thread?

Having spent ages composing a message I notice when it actually appears on a thread sometimes it is pretty meaningless as the thread has moved on, then if I post another message explaining what I was referring to sometimes the thread has moved on again by the time THAT message appears......

Or is it just me?

when you've done it, copy and cut it, then check thread and paste if you still want to post. (does that make sense)

It's easier than that.

Write your post then press your browser refresh button. You should get an updated version of the thread with your text still waiting to be posted at the bottom. At least you do with Firefox.

Must be your browser refresh button, not the Mumsnet one by the way.
