Hello Everyone. I’ve just joined with some friends including Glanny. Our old forum was about 20 years old but its been closed, so I’m homeless! 
I look forward to meeting you.
Hello Ed 
a very warm welcome to Over50sForum …
I hope you enjoy your time here with us.
Hello Ed welcome…
And welcome from me also.
Enjoy your time here.
Thank you. I’m sure I will.
Hi Fink-Nottle and welcome, hope you enjoy your time on Over50sForum.
That’s an interesting screen name, it will be interesting to know how and where that originated! 
Hello Fink-Nottle, from Down Under.
And hello from me from not quite so down under.
And a warm welcome from me Fink, I’m a bit under from London but nothing in comparison to the real down-unders.
:-p
Howdy Buck!
Hello and a very warm welcome to you Ed, and all your fellow forum friends, it must have been a heavy blow to lose your forum, but most of the members here are welcoming and friendly.
Is your forum name any connection with the Gussy Fink Nottle from the Jeeves and Wooster series?, the fella who’s nuts about newts? I’m rewatching the episodes presently, one of Wooster’s Aunts calls him Ink Bottle.
Hi Fink
Welcome
Hi Jem
Thanks for the welcome, seems very friendly here. You’re quite right my name is from the P G Wodehouse book Jeeves and Wooster. I love those books and the characters names just make me laugh on their own. 
I don’t have any great interest in Newts just in case I’m asked. 
Hello Scott
You found us then. 
how do Fink-Nottle
Hi Fink
Ditto!
Warmest welcome Fink-Nottle, Sad when your forum closes, but you couldn’t have chosen a better forum to join, I promise.
We are a friendly bunch on here and we love it when newbies join us.
Looking forward to your input on the discussions.
Oh God, here we go…
