Hi Dave, Welcome back to h2g2. I'll leave you my usual message, and take you off the newbie list at the same time.

I'm Emmily one of the many <./>ACEs</.> (Assistant Community Editors) We're a bunch of volunteers who enjoy h2g2, affectionately known as hootoo, enough to want to help new Researchers find their way around what is a huge web site, by offering a warm welcome, links and advice.

Oh, and, don't be concerned if you see your Researcher/username on other people's Personal Spaces, or entries; that's just the tag, only you can see your name.

Have a or & or & put you feet up, relax and let your fingers do the walking

You can see all our smileys here - A18636636

ALL RIGHT !!!!! I'M SORRY I TOOK SO LONG TO REPLY.....

hello emmily,
thank you for your introductory letter, all that information is handy to have in one place, and even though i have been here before, i'm sure some of it will help me catch up with what's new etc...
i really enjoyed my previous incarnations in h2g2, and look forward to interesting participation from now on....
i was browsing around, and saw a thread i wanted to join, luckily i was able to retrieve my log in details without too much difficulty, now i just have to remember to go to that thread, i've got shopping to do etc.., what a tedious life this, isn't it?
i've just been busy, work, family, people dieing, drink, surfing, smoking, growing old......all these things take time....
thanks again, i'd better get moving....
bye,
dave.
