OrdinaryAngel Explorer Registered: Mon Apr 17 2006 Posts: 79 Loc: Berkshire UK	I thought I'd introduce myself as I've already posted on the help board.. it seemed rude not to say Hi here. I've been doing the quizzes for a while and have only just logged in to the forums, and I like what I see. So I hope you don't mind a slightly neurotic, 30something English rose joining in.

Welcome, Ladyphant. LOL, well no, my hang-ups are pretty harmless, and usually kept well in check. Love your avatar by the way!

sue943 Administrator Registered: Sun Dec 19 1999 Posts: 38005 Loc: Jersey Channel Islands	There are threads somewhere floating about in which people explain away their names. I registered on a website many moons ago and it asked for your name, I said Sue and presumably they just add a random three digit number to the names, mine was 943 so when I registered here it was easy to remember. Don't tell anyone, but it was a sort of dating site! _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!

sue943 Administrator Registered: Sun Dec 19 1999 Posts: 38005 Loc: Jersey Channel Islands	I'm a Brit, through and through. There are quite a few of us. A couple of years some of us met up in London in order to spend time with Copago who visted from Australia. If my memory seves me right, we had one from Hastings, two from Surrey, two from London, one from Norwich(?) and me from Jersey. Have a look at the Scrapbook for photos of the meeting. _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!

It looks like a good time was had by all. Maybe one day I'll get to meet up with fellow FunTrivia members. One wonerful thing about the internet is 'meeting' people from all over the world, even if it's just online.

I'm hurtling towards it at a scary rate and want to know if that's just something they say to make us feel better...
