hello from nowhere
« on: July 21, 2013, 12:48:23 PM »
Hi, My name is Malcolm, I have lived in South West Ireland for the last 24 yrs. and am now moving to Tortosa, Spain. I have been hammering, welding and making since I was a boy, now I am retired I hope to take it seriously. Have been with 2 other sites for a while and recognise some of the names, even new members whom I find very knowledgeable. But now be ready for the stupid questions as I'am here. Malcolm

 :wave: Hi Malcolm, and welcome to the madhouse!

The only stupid questions are the ones you should have asked. That said, don't expect many sensible answers from me.

Hi Malcolm

Welcome and glad to see that you joined up with MadModder. Nice to see that you are finally retired and can get down to some serious workshop activity. We look forward to your questions as there is usually someone around to answer or at least give you an opinion.

Your old friends as well as new look forward to your future participation in the various forums.

You will no doubt catch  :proj: for which there is no cure, but we will try to help.  :D :D

Cheers  :beer:

Hi Malcolm, sounds like you're going to be a great addition to the group. Questions are more interesting than answers a lot of the time!  Welcome aboard  :beer:
I love it when a Plan B comes together!

Welcome Malcolm. Spain doesn't sound like "nowhere" from here.
