Can't write to USB stick without sudo

Hi!

The problem I'm having is that when I insert a USB stick (formatted to
FAT32) I have to use sudo with Dolphin to write/erase files to/from the USB
stick.

I've tried erasing the stick in the KDE Partition Manager to FAT32 and it's
always the same.

Even changing the permissions (by right clicking in the Dolphin window then
choosing properties) does nothing. They always revert back to root being
the owner and that others can't modify the contents.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No wonder I have a Sherry at Christmas!  :D
