Hi everyone. I've been an occasional lurker, and see that one or two members here I already know.
I will be darkening the doors of Himley Cricket Club next Sunday, so thought I should maybe I should introduce myself. Blessed with two cloth ears and a handful of sausage fingers, I have little value when it comes to technical advice. But I do like people, love music, and am fascinated by things audio. And I'm also quite good at picking up heavy things without dropping them, so I may come in handy this Sunday.
Look forward to meeting some of you next week.
Ste.
Edit: I see that for some reason it hasn't accepted my regular username (Pigmy Pony), but that's ok, I've been called worse

Welcome Ste (Pigmy)....
Was "Captain Cackbum" also taken?! 😂
I think you know a fair few here anyway but I'm sure you'll know a few more after next week.
Look forward to seeing you there to share the burden!

Cheers Antonio. Just finding my way round this forum, and I see that your birthday is the day after the BO. That's unfortunate timing - my birthday's on 1st January, and for most of my life that has got me free beers at midnight...

I can't lie, having a New Year's Day birthday has some advantages, one being that I have never ever worked on my birthday. Also, when I was younger and less ugly New Years birthdays got me some tipsy lady attention... Wasn't always good though - pressies from relatives usually came with the disclaimer "This is a combined birthday and Christmas present"  Even as a child I knew I was being fobbed off. |

As a child of Christmas Eve, I completely understand where you're coming from on all counts! |
