Hello all - new here, though like many others I've been lurking around at the back, near the buffet, for quite a while. Lovely to be here anyway! Back story - weaned on Tull as a minor, bombing around the sunny English countryside in the late 70s / early 80s on summer holidays with my Dad's 'Songs From The Wood' / 'MU' C90 tape on ... and then got into them properly when I was 12 or 13 in the late 80s. They've been firm favourites ever since, alongside a whole host of varied other stuff. Gareth

Sausage roll and pork pie ingestion a speciality. 'Cup of Wonder' to this day reminds me of staring out of a car window circa July 1982 at a waving field of tall grass and seeing a farmer leaning on a fence. Or was that the Two Ronnies? gx

Welcome from me too, Mr T,..BTW...don't ever use John Tetrad as an alias in California...I used it on a california ID for long enough to generate four or five warrants...for red lights and similar high crimes ON A BICYCLE...back in the days when a little movement called 'Critical Mass' united yuppies once a month to ride bikes and block traffic in some sort of amorphous protest..presumably about bike rights but more focussed on meeting each other in bars after and exchanging bodily fluids...anyway...they pissed off the police once a month and ran back to their cars and cubicles while we bike messengers bore the brunt of angry drivers and ticket happy police...so we all needed fake IDs...which became obsolete as soon as the first ticket got old enough to generate a warrant...anyway...John Tetrad was one of many names i blew thru till the cops calmed down and the yuppies found computer dating.....well, I think critical mass still exists but not as high profile.
