Hello! Catherine England Schleunes here from Baltimore, Maryland, USA

Oooooooh Nasty. He he he.

Good point Sue. Wow you are quick witted. My brain does not think that fast.

Where do you get such great smileys? And how do you get them in your quotes? 

Hi Cathy:  I don't get to travel as much as I'd like to.  Our first trip to the British Isles was last November and I'm positively hooked.  It's kind of spoiled me from wanting to go anywhere else.  I think Wales and Scotland will have to be included next time.  If you go to England, Cathy, I would recommend North Yorkshire.  You can surf this site by county and see what suits you.

Now after all that codswallop Catherine meet the legendary Ron Brind. But first, welcome of course to the best website and forum on the net, and trust me, most of the members have a mad streak in them from time to time - especially that Peter, he is absolutely barking!! 

Yes it's true see Legendary Ron Brind and Third Day http://nigeljames.typepad.co.uk/nigels_notes/2007/05/a_truly_memorab.html

If you can bearly believe that, hear what I had to say about C S Lewis when I talked to Oklahoma via Ray Sanders and Bob Nigh recently at www.messengerradio.com oooh, I'm really important I am!!!

As for finding things out regards the PC, join the club but when you get stuck we have a member in the forum who can fix anything, isn't that right MG? She's a real clever clogs Catherine. Anyway enjoy the power of POE - Pictures Of England.com 

You also forgot to tell Catherine that you are a moderator on this forum too, Ron; making you even more important   .

I love the fun in this forum! But I think I am lost. Okay, Ron is a moderator but I'm not sure what else it is you do? Or what your story is. I guess I joined a little late in the game. Can you fill me in?

I am having a hard time keeping up with British English> Thank Heavens for my book "British English A to Zed" 

Oh, I get to dish the dirt...I mean share the information on Ron. Please everybody else, feel free to add you pennies worth (or ten cents, depending on which country you live in).

Ron Brind, husband of lovely Anna Brind, father of lovely Sarah and father-in-law to lovely Chris. Chris and Sarah are POE.

Ron is a lovely fella (lovely is my word of the day) a very tall and lovable (close enough to lovely to work) with a sharp (very sharp, ouch) wit.

Ron is full of banter, barbs (friendly), boisterousness (hope that's a word, as now I'm on a B kick) and, and, can't think of another B word right now (and no, I don't use that other B word you are thinking of).

He of course has been part of POE since the beginning, and the rest of us have joined in along the way. We are one big happy family and we welcome you as part of that family.
