Title: Late Arrival
Post by: jazz on November 04, 2008, 02:27:18 PM

I feel I've been "loitering" around this forum making the odd posting for too long without properly introducing myself.  Like the final round in "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue" I think I should announce myself as a "late arrival at the Kitz Forum Ball".

Like many on this forum I am retired and have generally found it to be the best occupation I have had in my life.  When I did work I was in Further Education, retiring more than ten years ago.  I have never had any training or work experience in IT - merely been a user since my first purchase of a Sinclair ZX81 (with optional extra 8Mb RAM pack) many years ago!

I came to this site when I first moved onto broadband and have found it very instructive and helpful.  I have also enjoyed the very sociable nature of the forum posters and for this reason I do not think that I can continue to "sit in the corner enjoying the hospitality" without saying "Hello" properly.   I'm afraid I've not much computing advice to offer but I hope to keep up contact with the Forum for a long time to come.

Jazz,
I felt the same way but, one day along came a problem that I had the solution to and it makes you feel great being able to post a reply that is useful.

Kepp reading and throwing in your "two penn'orth" and it will help someone with a problem sometime.

It's no use fluttering your eyelashes Kate. It's Kitz you've got to persuade. ;D

This "bonjour" smilie is the thin end of the wedge. If scottiesmum is allowed that, she will be demanding double sized suns... ???

TD could not stand the pace.  :'(

Kitz, if I replied to that, you'd probably banish me permanently to the NC and never speak to me again.

There may not be "hospitality" as such but the forum, through its members, is very hospitable.  I hope I may be able to contribute and help from time to time.

Thank you - that's very thoughtful (and a nice red too - just like the one I plan to drink with my dinner tonight!)

"Kitz Forum Ball."    I like that coin of phrase, only problem is that now I can't this out of my head now
