Hi, My name is Paul. I’m 52, twice divorced, single parent with a 16yo daughter.
I own my own joinery business, hence the username. Looking forward to getting involved on a forum where the average age is a tad higher than 16 for a change.
Not sure what else to tell you about me, so ready to answer any questions. So long as they aren’t about my sex life. I have difficulty remembering that far back!
Hello, Chippy, and welcome to OFFF - I am sure you will enjoy it here, everyone is very friendly!
Take care:)
Hi Brandykins, and thanks for the welcome. One question though. Am I being terminally dim in asking what the third F stands for in OFFF?
Hello Paul 
welcome. I look forward to chatting with you .
Thanks Meg, and BTW, I love Worcestershire sauce
Hi Paul a warm welcome to you!
Thank you Mags. So many friendly ladies here. I feel at home already LOL
I don’t 
and would rather have HP.
I actually originate from near Bakewell, my husband used to say I was one of the original Bakewell tarts 
Haha, well to be honest I only use it in stews to disguise the fact I cant cook. But I will say I’m rather partial to a nice Bakewell tart, God bless Mr Kippling.
Hi Chippy, pleased to meet you and hope to see you around, I am retired now but had my own building and plant business before that, hence plantman…
Oh, by the way, you cannot use the words Bakewell Tart and Mr Kipling in the same sentence, as they bear absolutely no resemblance to one another…
Haha thanks Plant man. Unfortunately my ramblings usually have no resemblance to anything that makes sense so…that’s nice.
Hello and welcome , hope you enjoy it here.
Hello there Chippy…Welcome…
And welcome from a Manchester tart:lol:
Sorry - I had an extra “F” in it - I never even noticed that!
Rose:)
Hello Chippy. Welcome to the forum. I shall look forward to reading some of your posts - I have the feeling you won’t be “backkards at coomin forrard” - as they say in some of the stranger parts of the country. 
Ha, thanks Jean, Lady Angler and mesco m. My brother lives in Timperly.
Ahhh Brandykins, I’ve been here less than an hour and you’re confusing me already LOL.
Aerolor, thanks for the welcome, and I need a translation for “backkards at coomin forrard”…NOT.
I can see you have me banged to rights already
Hey up Paul. How do chuck. I look forward to reading your posts and hopefully having a laugh.
Hi Mollie, I take it you’re from the pool lol.
Yes I have a sense of humour, although not always to the fore, I have been told I can raise the occasional smile
No chuck I’m not from the Pool. As you’ll see top right of my posts I’m from Wigan.
