    Default Greetings from Wales UK

    Hi guys!!!
    A new friend told me that this site is not just for Ozzies, so I figured I'd say hello.
    I won't mention his name yet, so you can't blame him for me joining

    I do know a few of the names here, but look forward to 'meeting' a few more.
    I've been 'doing' pens for about 2 years.

    Big time difference!!!! You lot must be having breakfast while I'm have a final beer before bed

    Cheers
    Steven

    Steven, Speak funny! nice coming from a Welshman to a Geordie 100% but I had to learn to speak Stralian or English as they call it.

    As for the Seppo's just watch the spelling they forget at times leave letters out etc

    You're a Geordie?? And they let you into Oz??
    If I knew it was that easy to get in I would have moved years ago.
    Too damned old now (47) I don't think I can get enough points now...
    oh well......maybe in my next life

    PS, what's a Seppo?

    Thumbs up Skiprat

    D'day you Welsh scrounger and welcome aboard.

    Know your work from the IAP site. Great work you do.

    I don't need a trans later. I was on a ship for 17 days with a wonderful couple from Wales and lots of people from Lancashire and Yorkshire, including a couple of Geordies.

    G'day Steven and welcome to the forum.

    I have long admired your work on IAP and you were kind enough to send me some pointers on your pen mill recently.

    Look forward to seeing your imaginative (dare I say ground breaking?) work here.

    No, some of us are drinking beer now too. Welcome Steven!
    .
    I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

    Regards, Woodwould.
