    Well, found this site via your illustrious administrator's posting elsewhere on the web :D

    I'm hardly studying for a cert, in fact the closest I get is Second Year, A-Level IT, which I'm in the process of concluding now, after having constructed, implemented, evaluated (*shudders*) an MS Access based 'van hire' system for my coursework, lovely- I know :D

    And, I'm off to uni in Spetember to study.. English Language with Linguistics... so...

    Computing is something I like to do on the side :D I hope to learn from y'all :)

    Hey Jon, just in case you feel a bit "left out" in comparison to some of our other Members' opening posts, you would normally have had a barrage of replies to your post. Just that this place is always like a ghost-town during holiday weekends :roll:

    Don't worry - hopefully you'll hang around to meet the rest of the Troops just shortly :D

    Honestly, Trip - you and your over-analysing :roll: Yeah, OK - you've got a point, but the "Easter weekend" here is generally taken to mean inclusive of the Friday/Monday too :oops:

    Unless you're in Tech Support, that is :cry: Mind you, saying that - someone made a serious gaff in planning the shift rotas for today, meaning that we will have zero Support from 5-9 tonight (meant to be 9-9 Mon-Sat).

    Hmmm, I sense some extremely irate Users and one even more-so Boss tomorrow when this comes to light :aaah

    Hey Thanks all, Jakamoko- worry not, I don't expect to be besieged with posts in less than a day either way :P and if that's the norm, then I hadn't noticed :roll: :D

    Anyhow here I am and here I shall stay :P :D

    In the US, spring break and Easter Sunday so the kids had a full week off of school. I'm trying not to over-analyze but after all...I am a tech.

    Besides, I get to eat Matzah for Passover/Feast of Unleavened bread for eight days and still have to go to work. Wassup with that??? :eek: :wink:

    Sorry to hijack your thread, Jon. We will now return to your regularly scheduled "welcome". :)

    The great thing about boards is that they are all filled with crazy regulars, I like it :P

    Erm, some more info, well, when I've gotten my English Degree I had plans to do a PGCE and become a teacher, but i'm slowly backing away from that - so who knows. I might cancel all my UCAS applications, go through clearing and do some kind of IT degree :P

    The sites cool, been having a good look around, will get into the groove of things shortly I expect :D

    Again, Thanks everyone !
