Hello from Cape Town
I'm really excited to see a new forum like this one, definately a breath of fresh air.
I see some of my old friends from around the photo web here, you guy's probably know me as Kiki-Di...........however I have been sporting a new resurfaced hip for the last 10 days so I feel that Hippy-Di is more appropriate (I was one of those in the late 70's too) lol.
Because of my lack of mobility and ability to stay seated for too long it might take me a while to get up and running here, however I am itching to get out and about with my camera or even do some PS work to get me back in the groove!... A bit nerve wracking, but it seems really friendly here.
As Pavman will attest I am an ex pat who originally hails from England, born in Burnley and grew up in Leicester, I came here to work many years ago and ended up staying. The two of us have had fun sparring about England v SA and I have never wavered in my support for England!!!! All good fun!
Looking forward to some good times here too.
Diane

Hippy, Happy, Kiki Di welcome to the site old friends as well as new abound, the aim is to be a friendly place where there is no need to mention rules as we’re all on the same plane, (even the loonies  ), welcome again and have fun.

I must admit I twitched rather severely when the word "loonie" was used ... but, realized it probably had nothing to do with Me! Muuuuuuuah!!!

Hippy-Di ... Peace, Luuuuuurve and Mung Beans Your way :]
Regards Tedz.

Hi Di....(squeeze cheeks).....I knew it was you by the accent....
Quit twitching Tedz...in my country...loonie means we are just another 100 pennies richer. I'll take all the loonies I can get.

WOW this has been like some sort of wacky family reunion with old and new friends together!!! Perhaps its a remake of "the invasion of the body snatchers" lol
I thought that Mung was the baddie in "Flash Gordon", but it probably would be safer to sit with you Fay, I wish you hadn't told me to "squeeze my cheeks" I nearly burst my stitches.
Tedz my old friend, decided that Irene was not a good handle out of respect to you. Are you guy's out of mourning black yet lol.
Hi Genese.......nut house is right but it seems like a load of fun! Nice to meet you.
Nice to see you too Bootie and thanks for the thoughts, is still frustrating as it's hard to hold my camera and 2 crutches.....anyway am off to the doc for my followup tomorrow so perhaps he'll let me use only one.
All the best
Diane
