| Made it to the Forum at last. Hi to all who remember me (or want to) from 1970 to 1995 when I left. With my background I should have got here earlier (percussion {not terribly brilliantly}, photography, music library, BBMag & computers). Nice to see so many names I remember and recollections of times past, both good and bad. Now living in Whangarei, New Zealand and running my own Internet Service Provider business, having spent 5 years running a rural Post Office in Appledore, North Devon. Great to hear from anyone who remembers me & wants to get in touch. I'll keep watching the forum. Take care everyone. |

You got me right as well Twink - miss those days in the back of Phil's van. And Phil eating a curry & rice or kebab while driving. Don't play very much now but still have a kit and few other perc instruments to keep my hand in. _________________ Hitter of things (1970-95), Librarian, photographer, BB Mag gopher & computeriser - in fact, anything unmusical really! |

I forgot to mention, it was you that also got me onto Macs in the first place. Since I left in 1995 I bought a Mac and have done so ever since. Now the proud owner of an Intel G5 iMac. Drooooools. Cheers once again MacMan. from MacFan.  _________________ Wine is meant to be drunk............I am drunk.............Therefore am I wine??

I've still got a few Mac s dotted about the house, including a couple of original Macs from about 1984/5, as well as more up-to-date models, including the latest MacBook Pro laptop which I'm using at the moment. Unfortunately, most of my work involves Windoze and Linux/Unix but Im still trying to convert the unwashed! _________________ Hitter of things (1970-95), Librarian, photographer, BB Mag gopher & computeriser - in fact, anything unmusical really! |
