• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Hello,
My name is James, i live in Sussex, i'm 32 and work in IT. I semi unknowingly dropped myself in the deep end in terms of my DIY skills when we bought our first (and present house). This is where my appreciation for being more hands on really started.
I have a (never ending) project car, a few mountain bikes which i enjoy and love a good beer.
I'm currently building a shed, which incidentally is how i found this forum, and hope to use it as a space to facilitate the car work, bike maintenance and beer brewing.

Learnt a fair bit reading through this forum, so thought i'd join, say hello and ask for advice!
By the way....I had to google the answer to the forum human check question!

Cheers
James
 
Welcome James

Sorry about the questions, I had to make them hard enough to not be too obvious as we went through a spate early on of me having to get rid of 50+ spam accounts per DAY!!! :shock:

After that I figured anyone who really wanted to come in would either know, or find out, so you've passed test one and we now know you have good Googling skills! :lol: :obscene-drinkingcheers:

Cheers
Mark
 
Welcome, James.

You can't beat a good beer!!

Try Ringwood Old Thumper!
 
Thank you all for the welcome :)

No problem about the sign up question Mark. I was trying to demonstrate how steep of a learning curve i have ahead of me. Eeek haha

Oh, Old Thumper, lovely drop Malcolm!

One more post James and the mod approval of posts will disappear. Then you you will be able to post some images of your workshop project. ;)

Same as me when I started mate, and look at me now. Helping run this forum, have learned absolutely loads of great stuff from people here, and when I finish my biblically long workshop build (just getting in there before Andy does!!! [emoji35][emoji23]) then I might actually get to put some of it to use...!

Cheers

Hi James. I also work in IT (sort of) and we won't hold it against you.
Good luck with the build. I am looking forward to the photos. I am mid way through mine and the help from here has been amazing.

Hi James,

Welcome to the forum. [emoji41]

I cycle but on road, are you on Strava?

Thanks Dave. I do occasionally use Strava, but mostly to track where i've been in the Surrey hills. I can definitely see its benefits.
