Hi
I'm a Brit living in Italy. I'm an avid reader of all sorts and a writer trying to improve my skills. I've just spend two years researching the First World War. My Great Uncle Harold George Macklon fought in the war and afterwards wrote a memoir about his experiences. Its a fascinating account of friendship, bravery and survival. Please feel free to check it out at www.shalligettoblighty.co.uk. Apologies for the blatent self promotion, my only excuse is that at least I'm not trying to sell anything!:goof:

I joined this forum because it seems full of like-minded and friendly people.:nod:

Your Ladyship is most welcome. Its a bit like greeting someone from one of Oscar Wilde's more light hearted pieces or Evelyn Waugh's bright young things.
Thanks for the First World War link. It reminds me of my grandads sepia photo with Sam Browne belt, heavy cloth uniform & puttees that my younger brother still retains.
Trust you enjoy it on the blog.
Dive in. The water's fine.
