Bookmark a post?

It might be me having a moment of Stoopid, but is there a way to bookmark a post or jump to "last read"?

I find when I click on a topic that I have been reading i get taken to page 1, when I might have read up to page 3 for instance and there are now 5 pages.

Thanks

Hi Tracey,

If you click on "new" in the new replies lists, then you get taken to the last post in that topic that  you have read.

And generally, you can change your profile, to show the last posts at the top. This might also help.

Tracey,

Bob is spot on. Another thing that is useful, but it's not quite the question you are asking, is the "Notify" button. That is for topics that you've not replied to, but you'd like a notification if somebody replies to it. It's kind-of bookmarking other topics.
