Hello from Essex!

Post by DSmith78 »

Hello all. I'm new to this wonderful hobby - currently got my 3rd gen cornflake wash bubbling away. Been a member of the parent site for a month or so and learned a heap from the lovely people there but then I noticed how many more people from the UK are here! Look forward to squeezing your brains!

Yeah it's really good to see! What a wonderful hobby, darkened only by the greed of HMRC.
