I'm here mate.  I keep checking in but there seems to be a dearth of posters during the day!

I'm here too!  But much less active than I would otherwise be as I've just moved house and I'm waiting to be connected to the net. Till then I'm on mobile broadband which is just shite.

When I'm back online, normal service will resume.  The forum is still quite young, and activity is picking up, but still quieter than I'd like.

:)

ok well let's keep it busy then  :)
I can imagine the trouble you're having right now... rather you than me  :P
Where are you guys from?
I'm originally from Newton-le-willows... Home of Rick astley and Gravy train but you probably won't have heard of them. Now I live in St Helens.

haha! I've heard of both of them! Showing my age now... :p

Originally from Plymouth, home of nobody worth knowing, and now living at the t-junction of Devon, Somerset, Dorset. Not much going on music wise, but it's beautiful here at least :)

What's it like in St Helens?

Beautiful part of the country. I spent a week in Teignmouth last summer and loved it down there. Went to visit Port Isaac as well but couldn't find Doc Martin... I was gutted  :P
Must be inspiring to live in such a beautiful place though.
Hope you manage to get sorted soon  :)

I'm from High Wycombe.  Home of Howard Jones, ha ha.  How's that for musical heritage? 

It's pretty good round here, plenty of live venues and not too far from London for the bigger acts.  There doesn't seem to be much of a folk scene round here though but perhaps I haven't delved deep enough. 

I know Devon quite well Tone, the young lady who was the inspiration for the songs on my MySpace and several others was from Torquay so I spent pretty much the whole of last summer there.  Ah, halcyon days.  Nevere been to Newton Le Willows though but maybe one day!

I'm from a small town in Worcestershire called Kidderminster. Yeah, none of you know it I bet! :)

Though this place does seem a little empty :(
