You sound kinda young there, mate, but as long as you don't fall out of your perambulator we can probably use ya.
Welcome, eh.

Naw... yer the pup, mate. I just turned 56... I prefer to think of it as 30-56 heheheh. I'm in and from Texas but lived in England 3 years long ago. I'll give understanding your accent a go... betcha it won't be as tough as you think. Either way we'll sort 'er out <grin>. Look forward to seeing ya in the Black and blowing stuff up with ya... right now I have two characters in the Fleet: Butch in TOS: Veterans and Keth in the Qan Mang. My game handle is @Lomax6996, feel free to add me as a friend if you like. Good Hunting!

Now I don't feel so bad about turning 50 next week - I thought I was one of the really older folks in this Fleet (along with just a few others about my age )

They say 50 is the new 30, so we're not old. Seriously the rate of advancement in medical tech these days means 50 is now middle aged... and by the time you hit 80 I guarantee that things will have changed so much that the whole concept of aging will be undergoing radical revision. It's one of the things that Trek was WAYYYYYY to conservative about in their forecasts.
