Hi all, thought i'd introduce myself before plunging in to what seems to be the usual madness surrounding anything "Ffordeian". However not sure what to say other than "Hi"! As you can see, great intellectual wit, not!
Another Aussie? I need to get more Seff Efficans in here.... Even up the odds.
But then, I do make up with quality what is lacking in quantity.
Welcome btw...

My geography teacher had a map of the world with the South pole at the top. Took everyone weeks to notice.

I think it has been said: we are a better educated lot down here in Terra Australis, so of course, we would read a better class of book, and even understand most of them.
However, do not let this dismay those from other lands, for we appreciate like minds in other places, even Queensland.
Be happy in the knowledge that by being a fforumite that you have joined an elite intellectual group who appreciate all forms of input into the fforums.

Thanks for the warm welcome (although i'm not so sure about a cannon aimed in my direction, can you wait a few months, i'll have moved from your range of fire by then)
Checkered waistcoats, fine on shop dummies. Wool or polyester?
Striped socks, fine on others. But unbecoming to chickens.
