How to Forward SMS Text Messages on Nokia Lumia Windows Phone

I've recently switched from iPhone to Nokia Lumia Windows phone and this week wanted to forward an SMS Text Message from my Nokia Lumia phone to a friend.

At the time I couldn't find any option on the Nokia Lumia phone to be able to edit or forward a text message once it was sent. Having got home I checked online and found the answer.

It is possible to forward an SMS text message on a Nokia Lumia phone but you have to press/hold down on the message you want to forward and a new menu will appear that gives you the option to forward it.

This seems to be one of the big differences between Nokia Lumia phone and iPhone - a lot of the context menus require you to press/hold down on the screen in order to display the new menu. On the iPhone many of these menuy links are visible eg forwarding a message has a tick box next to the SMS text that when selected allowing forwarding.
