Highlight it all then press Ctrl + C

Ctrl + V will paste it back.

When I copy a post that has pics in it.... I do Ctrl C, then paste it - to get the pictures to show, I find that I have to manually enter them again by right clicking on each pic in the original thread > then Properties, this shows the Address of the pics, so copy/paste and add the image tags in the new post.

PS I've got this exhaust in the boot of the Mondy - don't suppose you'll be at the unit on Thursday night?
