Hi all,

 Iv'e been on the site for a couple of months so thought I would say hello. I'm a Devonian and walk mainly on Dartmoor. I run an Explorer Scout group and Ten Tors teams so getting out on the hills with them is great. I think this is a great site with good advice so look forward to getting to 'know' you all.  ( hi mole)

Hi Paul,

Welcome to OM

Hi Paul.  At this rate the Bogmoor Flounderers will soon outnumber the Lakeland Louts on OM.

03/02/2011 at 22:42

Ha Ha   A very good evening Totty. It was Ten Tors training and mole will be joining us on Sunday, seems a nice chap. Love the names for Dartmoor , Bogmore Flounderers. Would'nt swap it for anywhere.

make sure you fit him with a hobble before you start

my parents live down that way - you'll often find them on the moor, brandishing walking sticks at any irresponsible young adults passing them at more than 1.5 mph.

Just watch out for him trying to sell you mystic crystals and weird vegetables

Hi Paul, welcome to OM.

Mole is a relatively civil chap, he doesn't snore too loudly.

Hi Metric Kate, relatively civil if fine, should fit in ok.

Just spotted this

Hi Paul - looking forward to a day out tomorrow

@ Mrs Nesbit.

Kate - relative to whom? 

I must apologise for the occasional expletive whenever you threw a 'lucky' dice roll.

it's not luck, it's what you do with it

backgammon is a game of skill and experience:  some dodgy old bloke taught me the rules on the banks of the bosphorus.  what with not understanding a word, and being dazed with the coffee, mrs n and i now play with somewhat haphazard rules.

which result in my winning all the time.

experience, you see

05/02/2011 at 12:19
I see a challenge there
05/02/2011 at 12:44

here's a formal one then:

i'll kick your arse at backgammon, country boy

05/02/2011 at 12:58

probably based on my performance against Kate last weekend.

But then I hadn't played against anyone for a year or so.

Matt C is more my standard at the moment - we were both beaten soundly!


Paul - apologies! You'll get used to the thread drift/hijacking on OM - it more resembles a group conversation than a Q&A forum...

That's why I like it.  See you in the morning.
