Guess I should
« on: April 14, 2014, 06:35:05 PM »

make one of these topics. :P

My name is Peter, I'm 27 and I'm an unemployed network engineer. I graduated from Preston polytechnic university in 2008 and have never been formally employed, partly because of the economic downturn and partly because I'm disabled. Also partly because I live in rural Gloucestershire and can't drive. I spend most of my time mucking around on the internet and playing computer games. I like cats, particularly the larger variety, and did get to stroke a lioness' tail once after she stuck it under the fence :P Stroked a leopard too but he was unconscious at the time.

Anyway I like fast internet, having been stuck for years with no internet, then 2mbit adsl, then rate adaptive ADSL that got gradually slower. Now I'm on FTTC which is also getting slower :P

Hi and welcome to the forum :)

As you will have no likely noticed, we have a fair share of feline appreciators. 

Preston Poly..  Heh, it's many years since I've heard it called that name :)

Welcome Loony.

Used to attend a few 'Students nights' at Preston Poly on Moor Lane. This was before you were born though,  ;D, so don't even know if it's still there ?? Enjoy the forum.  :)

Never went to that street so not sure if its still uni owned or not. Student union building and nightclub were on fylde road when I was there, my department was the other side of fylde road, and I lived in halls on pedder street.

Moor Lane is right in the centre of Preston. There's an incredibly large BT building there, and the SU do's were pretty much just up the road from it.  :)

On a clear day I imagine it can be seen from a certain Rocky Hill castle  ;)

Welcome Mr loonylion!
Hope you enjoyed the Bloodmoon  :)

Agree UncleUB  sometimes we make a  basket of squirrels  seem sensible :-[ :))
