Feeling rather pleased that my account was restored to me!
Many thanks to Cyrus.
The admins do help when they can - its only lucky that i had a post with my bitcoin address on it so i could verify my ID.

This is inspiring news because I have read so many people lose their accounts due to hacking and phishing. Very good to know it can be retrieved finally and with some diligence. Good for you, I am glad you got it back!
