Hello all,

Been such a long time since I last posted here I thought I best reintroduce myself.

I'm Chris, got a few (not many at all) engines, enjoy running them from time to time, and I did used to hang around this forum rather a lot.

Had a couple of redundancy scares at work, so I have been avoiding the temptation to spend any money recently, partly the reason I haven't been popping in here much at all recently.  A daft reason maybe but I find that the more I read about a hobby the more I get tempted to buy something new.

Anyway welcome to any new members.  Hello to any of the older ones that may remember me, and thanks to Will for the messages since I have been missing from here.

Cheers all.

I had only one new engine in that time as my B´day present  but it´s generally nice to find you amongst us again!  Whether with new engines or not doesn´t make a difference : YOU are back and that´s nice ! Therefore a friendly " Nice to see you again !"

cheers Joe
