Wow, thanks for all the replies! From the hour or so I spent lurking before joining up I got the impression that you're a friendly lot, and I was certainly right

For those who asked, I'm just on the outskirts of Winston-Salem - a place I hadn't even heard of before coming over here. It's been a huge culture shock - I lived in both Manhattan and Malibu for a short while and thought back then that I had seen the USA, lol. The people here are generally very friendly, but it's a totally different way of life than I was used to back in the 'Pool where it was no big deal to go and have a few social drinks with friends whilst shopping on a Saturday afternoon or to go out playing with my band (I used to play at The Cavern Club pretty regularly). I've been a member of several different forums in my time here, but XMTS already seems to have more camaraderie than many others - maybe it's the nature of the subject that draws a certain kind of person. Needless to say, I'm pleasantly surprised!

Oh and thanks, McClef for bringing tears to my eyes with the 'Leaving of Liverpool'. I'm off to download it now for my quick fix of home!
