Hi to all you twirlers and HoP lovers!
I'm Malcolm's latest addition to the HoP family with my first day of work here at HoP today (Mon 16th Oct 06) and I see lots of fun ahead (as well as a huge learning curve)! I am totally new to poi so I hope I don't make too many dumb comments!
A bit about me then:
George McNeur, male, age... "enough"!
Family: wife Heather, 3 boys 12, 13, & 15.
Location - Christchurch, NZ.
working career: Electronics Engineering - 15yrs RNZAF, 6 yrs in Test/Manufacturing and 6.5 yrs network products R&D.
You can find out a teensy bit more about me/what I've done at these sites:
https://kiwisoldier.150m.com/now.htm#george
https://kiwionice.150m.com/
and my current main interest outside of work and family: https://aotearoakendo.150m.com/
So, looking forward to the journey, and meeting all you guys 'n girls.
cheers
George

Ade, why oh why are they all older people ... ??? Are you trying to tell me something ??!!!
Pat - don't worry about that - I've made a mntal note a long time ago that da ickle dragon is on the special watch list, and should I die an early lamentable death my ghost will come back and haunt her exclusively...
Besides I have yet to see the exhibition of special fairy moonlit dancingness so I can't leave - my life would be incomplete without that!
Thanks everyone else for the wishes!

But ... but ... YOU CAN'T LEAVE!!! *throws her arms around George's ankles so he can't walk out of the room *
On a more *clears throat* mature note … congrats! It sounds like this is going to be a job and a half. I hope that you really enjoy what you are going to do and that you can still visit us here at HoP, we don’t bite … hard.
All for one and crunchies for us!

hee hee Mr Mjk - yep I guess, although "demoted" makes it sound like a punishment! Is there such a thing in the HoP Armed Foces as voluntary demotion? We used to call it "remustering" but I guess we need to check with General Rougie on that one...
Crunchies for us! Yes please Gidg!
