Welcome from Brit. ExPat living in North Dakota. You will enjoy this site, and we could use another "Old Duffer" with a weird sense of humour!!:);):cool:

Glad to see you back old timer.... having a good hobby can be very helpful in the recovery process. Now set a challenging project and get started. No rush, just get started, work (play) at your own pace. But above all - Get Started and Enjoy. Regards DW
