| Welcome foilist!
Some rules:
1) Don't feed the animals (epeeists).
2) Don't create a foil-only rep ***** thread. It demeans us all (to the level of the epeeists).
3) If you have a pole, Inq is interested in its flaws.
4) Trolls are best ignored, but even more fun to tease.

| Thanks, Merci, Grazi, Xie xie... Thanks everyone....I really appreciate it. In answer to some of your questions:
- I'm right handed (but I just love to go against leftys...maybe I was a lefty in my previous life!)
- I don't speak Italian or French (aside from the usual words/phrases which everybody knows) however, I am learning Chinese as I will be moving out to Shanghai later this year  ...where I hope to fence.
