| intro, i guess
hi all, i guess this is my intro to the forums (or fora, for you latin plural sticklers).
i've been fencing for about 8 years now, and i'm basically obsessed.
so...i guess that's about it on the subject of intros.

| Not quite; Inq (and I) both appreciate proper capitalisation.
Other than that, welcome to the forum! | |

| Welcome to the forum- enjoy your stay and watch out for Inq- he's somewhat crochety and grammer, spelling, punctuation, colored lames, epeeists, and well, just about anything else you can think of. Crochety, but nonetheless this forum would not be the same without him...

| Thanks for your welcomes, all.
I suppose I shall have to try to remember to capitalise effectively. I generally don't do it.
Ach, well. C'est le vie. A small price to pay, no?

| Are you referring to my spelling of "capitalisation"? That is the Canadian spelling, you know. | |
