Hello everyone.

Just like to introduce myself. I'm a new mac convert, and loving it. Bought myself a new 15'' Power Book.

I'm from the North East of England. Not very mac country I know, but still a great place. I'm a Geordie. Thats what we are called from around the River Tyne area. Looking foward to learning mac suff.

Best wishes to everyone.

Anyone want to know about Newcastle, just ask. See ya!!

Newkie Brown & Fishy in the dishy, right? Welcome.

 

[adambyte]

Welcome. And thank you for exposing me for the uneducated Yankee that I am. River Tyne? That's like the Thames, right? They both start with "T." It's all the same stuff.

Seriously, welcome.

Hi Neil!

Welcome to the board, nice to see a geordie around (not one myself but have friends up in that direction). On a related topic, have any of you seen this classic bit of geek humor, about the GEORDIE programming language? If not, learn all about it at http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/lennybruce/jokes/geordie.txt .

Enjoy

A Geordie? That's from Newcastle right? You need to educate us poncy southeners.

 

[NeilMcKie]

I would'nt say poncy. A little bit soft maybe.

 

[bbloke]

Only around the middle, and getting softer with age, too. Or is that just me?

Top Man! You only need to worry when it all turns to jelly.

Newkie Brown. There's plenty off. But fishy on a dishy there's none. Cos we've got no fishing boats now.
