I had thought about adding something like this but then looked to some other enhancement on the site.

It would take the same amount of effort to click your browser's Back button as it would to click a 'Back to forum' link.  Whilst you are testing out the wonders of the Back button, I will investigate how easy it is to meet your request. (It isn't that hard, it just takes my time away from something else that I got our of bed to do).

I will get to this one soon.

4 days ago my laptop died, it wont even start up anymore.  This kind of threw a spanner into my various 'desk jobs' as I had to dust off my 7 year old Mac to get back to work.

Admin Dog,  Can you add the page buttons as well as next and last buttons to the top of each page in addition to the bottom. 

For example, from the Forum page even if I click on the last post it takes me to the first post in the thread, then I have scroll all the way down to the bottom then click the next or last button to get to the latest post.

Can you make it so that if you click on the latest post it actually takes you straight to the latest post rather that the first post in that thread.

If you can't understand my bable let me know and I will try and elaborate.

Looking into it.
