Last reply should do it...although you may have to click on it two or three times.

there IS another way
on the first page there will be a number of pages in the thread, say its 72 pages long..
genes pages start at 0 zero so page 1 is 0
page 2 is 1, and so on

at the top of page in the Browser bar will be the address with a six/seven figure number at the end.( this one is http://www.genesreunited.co.za/boards.asp?wci=thread&tk=1220532)
left click twice at the end of the number,and add

&px=71 .....so it looks like 1220532&px=71

THAT will take you to the last page in the thread......the correct way up!!

Click on 'last reply' just above the top post. I find I have to do it twice, but it will then reverse the order of the posts, showing the last one first.

How do I get to the latest post without trudging through over 1000 pages, I refer to Mel's thread What do you remember from childhood.
