Signing off soon, but wow. I now know all kinds of things about Nighthoovers, mufflewhumps, emoticons and all that jazz.
A confusing, thrilling, rollercoaster ride of a first day interacting with this community.
Who knows what tomorrow will bring!
Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome.

"poor chap - I wonder if he'll get any time to do any work whilst he is here? "
Work? Work? I certainly hope not... If we suddenly get Italics who do work, it'll embarase all the older Italics
now... hang on one bread-bin picking moment... someone just said something relaly important.... I'm sure they did... or my name isn't err whatever it is that my name is...
*thinks*
*thinks**
I got it... someone mention booze?
