Re: Returning...
Hello RedBaron and welcome back. I'm sure your friends from the old school will be happy to see you. Rather than telling you how the forum has changed I will let you find out by yourself. This will allow you to get a better opinion. We have many new quality members, veterans and I can tell you this is probable the most open minded forum you"ll find. People here are valueled for their contributions, not for their nationality.

Re: Returning...
Welcome Back Red Baron, I hope your stay here this time will be better than the last.
Congrats on the papoose, I have two wrecking my house, although they are no longer babies.
If you have problem with trolls, let me know, I am certified Troll Killer. I took the advanced course just last week. If you doubt me, check my keyboard for notches and there is room for many more.

I like the "English dead" part! 
Are you still living in Dun Laoghaire? I'm back in Portugal, starting work in a power generation plant, but I'd rather be working abroad.
