thanks for the the welcome folks now excuse me if I sod things up a few times as I haven't done this chat thing and expect to have a few firebombs thrown at me until I get things right - broadband not having been available in the southern regions I was in (they thought they might be able to offer the service to me around 2009) and dial-up being prohibitively expensive even outside peak hours as they charged by the minute.

Katcal got there first so what's your poison gal and what does the parrot want apart from pieces of eight?

Angua_rox I lurve the image.
Note to self: haven't thought much about my mine yet.

Buzzfloyd the INWIG comes from correcting people for more than half my life - they keep calling me the wyrd one. My reply used to be - I'm not wyrd, I'm gifted!

Now I just hunt down a copy of Wyrd Sisters and teach them to read. I am not sure if this is a good thing as now they have taken to calling me Granny and a few have even tried headology on me.

Oh well whatever it takes to educate the masses.
