Whats the craic?
I thought it was about time to come out of hiding from the remote hills and bogs of Ireland, introduce myself and say a big thanks to all the contributors, admins and sponsors of this brilliant forum. So there it is, thanks for all the sound advice, tips and recipes etc. It's certainly been a fountain of knowledge and a massive help in my journey refining the craft. I've been stalking this site for a number of years but generally keep myself to myself as many have done before me since the craft was outlawed here in 1661.
I'll be honest and say I'm unlikely to post very often but thanks again for the wealth of information that I've gleaned from the site.
Just about to run my Christmas Poitín wash, so not stopping as its going to be a late night....but a satisfying one.

....Craic.
Well, I learn something new everyday whether I like it or not.
Glad you appreciate the site. And regardless of how little you post,
it's nice to know you and learn a new word.
