Clearly a bit dim

Hi
Thanks for the editing advice, folks. Now another one puzzling me.
I've finally found the info about having to post five times before you can PM someone, but when I check my stats it says I've posted 4 times - then when I go to read my posts, there are 5 listed!
Someone has Pm'd me and I'd like to reply but I can't, happy to wait until I've posted enough but don't understand why two different numbers showing!
Any help much appreciated!
btw - having probs with technology does take my mind off other matters, so every cloud and all that . . .

And just spotted a typo in post but can't edit because even though I've posted 6 now, it still says four!

the post count in this area of the forum are turned off I think. Also it make take the servers a few minutes to update your post count and grant you access to these things

I see your count is at 6 now
