General Chat Your Introductions!

Hello! I haven’t done anything like this for about 20 years and am nervous to say the least… live in London… lots of interests but don’t really know how to start. Perhaps the best thing to do is keep schtum and watch the chats? I’d love to make some new friends!

Hi Agua welcome along :sunglasses::grinning:

Hi Agua - Welcome to the forum.
You can lurk for a while or just jump right in and post on threads that catch your attention.
I was a member here for ages, just reading threads before I dared to post any comments - but I needn’t have worried - when I did eventually start posting, I was acknowledged and treated the same as members who had been posting for years.
So come on in and make yourself at home - they’re not a bad lot here - and we don’t bite! :grinning:

No need to be nervous Agua, just let uncle Foxy show you the ropes… :nerd_face:
Only joking, I think you will find that most members have a very good sense of humour and will be gentle with you…

Thank you Bret, I really appreciate the welcome. My name is pronounced Awa with a little hint of a hard g in the w, it’s Spanish for water. I like both water and Spanish, hence…

Hi Agua, I’m new here as well.
The folk seem ok.
I just need to learn how to use this site to get the best out of it.
