Just thought I'd give everyone a proper Topic to post your queries... :wink:

We've been receiving a large number of PM's (Personal Messages) through the PM message server, with very valid questions regarding issues on how to best use the many facilities that this website offers.... :shock:

I figure if many of you, particularly the 'newbies', are asking the same questions, then all Members could benefit from finding out the answers on an 'open' Topic... (Not to mention that it would save Ned and I, both of us 'two finger typists', from repeatedly sending out the same info...) :lol:

So off you go Gang, fire away...!!! :D :D

:shock: INCOMING....!!!! :shock:

I've also created our first on-line poll, directly above this post... ENJOY...!!! :D

Well Ned, when I was at Nirimba in 1984 there were a few female apprentices. Maybe they could of ended up as apprectices captains and vice captains back then in mid 80's.

So Jdee you are maybe correct they would of been called sprogs or sprogettes. Not quite sure, we need some of them to show their lovely heads :oops: in here. :roll: :wink: :D Maybe then they can enlighten us on what they were called.

Dear "Coral the Terrible"

I am shaking and sweating. I'm trying to figure out whether it's fear or anticipation. I enjoyed the days of virgin practice on the Gun Plot, but one on one scares me a bit.

I'll be ok if you promise to be gentle.

Stut up you yobbo's.
