hello, i'm ray from northumberland

Let me be the first to welcome you Ray.

Oh dear, I am going to get so confused, I've already been calling Roy, Ron, and now I'm going to add a Ray. So Ray, let me apologise now if I ever call you Roy or Ron.

I'm off now to see your pictures, and hope you will join us on the forum, as we are a fun, if not a little crazy bunch of folks who LOVE our England.

Only by a few seconds Lyn.

'Out of the mouth of babes' My son just said 'if she hadn't put na na na na naa, she would have been the first. I think there is a lesson in there somewhere

Dear Ray (or is it Ron or Roy  ), as your welcome thread goes to the dogs, please let me explain that us forum old-timers have a little contest going on where we like to be 'the first' to welcome someone new.

I hope you are a little mad too, then you will fit in here just perfect.

And I love your pictures, especially this one

Oh boy, even Ana beat me to the welcome this time. Never mind. Hello Ray and welcome to POE and the forum. We normally call it the mad house, its those women you know. Oh by the way, watch out for that Ron, He is the worst of the lot. He is totaly barmy.

After saying all that, come in and join us, but most of all ENJOY.

So Ray, are you living in England? I don't see a country in your profile. Of course you don't need to answer if you feel uncomfortable posting personal information.
