Hi Billy,
Welcome to the forum! Looks like the board is becoming more international every day. I love the different terms folks use in different parts of the world, i.e. wonky.
I had the monitor go out on my spare PC at work today. One second it was working just fine, the next time the screen was the gross yellow/green color. I am going to tell the PC tech that the monitor went "wonky" when describing the problem! And, if they don't bring me a new one, I'm going to call them a Wanker!

Billy, let me speak American slowly, we are so hard to comprehend, Please define "wonker" so we know it is being used appropriately. Ditto Wanker. Are we daft? Please help us understand  Kisses, cookie |

Billy,
To start a new thread or message, almost at the top of the page, there is a button on the right side that says new thread or something similar. Click on that, and start typing away.
Cookie, not exactly sure what a Wanker is, but I don't think it is a compliment. At least, in books that I have read. Other odd terms include bonking, and priest. A priest from a fishing aspect is a club used to whack a fish over the head to it out of its misery. You don't want to "bonk" a fish over the head with a priest as you are saying that you are going to have sex or make love with the fish and the priest.

Hi billyd Welcome to this board. Lots of good,friendly, helpful people here, so don't be shy about asking. Sorry I haven't been able to greet most of the new people coming in lately....guess you could call me a "wonky"...maybe even a "dolt" or is dolt a verb?...  Again, Welcome and enjoy!! duke |
