Hi gang, with my IT background I've been asked to take on some moderating duties which I can do from my truck cab. So I've agreed. I'm sure you will give as easy a ride as you have answered all my silly questions. I just wish I had a bit more time in the workshop.

Hey Wolfie

Welcome to the hot seat!

.It should help to pass the hours when you are parked up -and keep you away from the jam butties!

In a more serious vein you approached ME with enthusiasm, have never been afraid to ask supposedly "daft" questions, have taken advice and pursued your project to successful conclusion. I see no reason why you should not flourish in your new role.

Good luck with your task- I look forward to hearing more from you.

Cheers

Norman

So this will be Moderation for Moderation's sake. No lectures or other comments.

Sounds good to me Ken,

I moderate over on MEM and I have learnt a lot by being forced to read every single article posted. As moderator you will get to know who are the trouble makers, the real characters, who know what they are talking about and those who are worth listening to.

Well Well Wolfie….was wondering where you had disappeared to. So does this mean that you will stop asking novice questions on here?…I hope not, because I enjoyed reading them..good luck with your moderating duties.

You'll have to find me first.

Ketan I got a job in November back in my old profession of truck driver. It means I'm on the road Mon-Fri and dont get much time in my workshop. plus I'm working on a commission with my plastic modelling which is currently taking up my spare time. When thats finished its back in the workshop and more silly questions.

Oh and please bear in mind that I'm limited to what i can do on the road. I'm working with a small tablet tethered to a mobile phone. Anything major will be looked into at the weekend when I can get at my proper PC.

Could this be the starting point for a future editor ?

One never knows !

IT background but drive a truck ???????????????

Good luck mate and remember – Life -family- work -play and model engineering in that order although some would have it in reverse !

I would be hoping that all will understand that you are not available 24/7 to moderate and behave .

Actually, trucking background, went for a career change, chose IT but the grass was not greener and I'm back doing what I enjoy.

I can still fix computers though which makes for some handy beer vouchers.
