Things seem even quieter than usual around here, so here's two examples of British humour to amuse those left -

The first is from almost 90 years ago! - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bq7DGvfnr3U

Then, from 20+ years back, a personal favourite of mine, 'On the Lavatory With Frank Hovis' - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSPPGqF3LqM

What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

To the Guest spammers, your spam posts are not seen by public so why bother to attempt to spam this thread.

Is it somehow possible to regain access to an account which has been registered with an e-mail address I don't have access to anymore, and which says I have to request a new password?

(Or do you mean the numeric ID in the forum software? I think that is 65512.)

If you provide a valid email address you would like to switch to I can update your profile. If you post it, enter the address here so it's not a valid email address, for instance: yourname at whatever dot whichever.

Please let me know when should I try to get access.
I'm getting «The e-mail/username information submitted could not be found.» at ucp.php?mode=sendpassword.

I guess this means there has been no change yet - I understand this might take time and I'm okay with waiting, I'm mentioning it just in case I'm doing something wrong or stupid on my side.

(And thanks!)
