    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Welcome Hugh,

As soon as I read your thread title, I knew you weren't American. I wish people here could hear your accent!

I married a Scott who migrated (at the age of 2) to Haverhill, Suffolk county, England in 1990 so I have Scottish in-laws and love trying to figure out what you're saying.

Wire-wheeled is classic...the blokes over here call them spokes. Already I'm liking the new lingo you will be speaking from your native Scotland.

Moar/more pics please! We love pics... Especially of the countryside in the background.

You are hilarious! Thanks for that! I can tell you're a riot down at the pub. :p

My wife was born in Coatbridge, Lanarkshire county. Her father (rest his soul) worked in a metals factory (Plater) and had to find work in England after being put on the dull in the early 1970s. He had 7 daughters and 1 son...who is second eldest. I happen to marry the youngest daughter in the lot (born in Feb 1971).

We speak the same language...I just love how literal the word is spoken up in the highlands. It's like that everywhere you go but I must emphasize the places I've visited.

Good to meet you Hugh, alright!

My mother-in-law says: "Okai the new". Not sure what it means but it's great to try and repeat alot of what she says.

Well, this American loved visiting that s..thole...cause I was just passing through. I have a story...

Went down to a pub one evening with my wife's cousin and hung out with the boys. During one of my visits to the Lew, a drunken young lad stood right next to me at the urinals and started talking. When I answered him back, he decided to tell me how much he loved Americans. No, it's not what you think...

He finished his business but persisted that he show me his yank boxers to prove how much he loved the US. Well, he made his point and I quickly darted out of there. Fun times during my visit for sure!
