Hello again all! Thanks for all the welcomes. The user name is a little missleading, my name is actually Ruairidh Anyhow, now it's time to pop an engine on, let see if we can work out the best way of sorting it! Ruairidh.

Hi Ruairidh, and Welcome to the Forum from Glasgow, which is still in Scotland the last time I looked.

A very interesting name - just looked it up on the internet and it says 'Scottish cognate of RUAIDHRÍ' and 'RUAIDHRI (Pronounced: ROR-ee) means "red king" from Irish ruadh "red" combined with rí "king". This was the name of the last high king of Ireland, reigning in the 12th century.

Hi Ruairidh and welcome. There's quite a strong Scotish contingent developing on the forum. I lived there myself for a while and knew a Ruairidh but I doubt it was you because I don't think he was interesed in steam.
