I think it'd be pretty cool if we all added ourselves to the new google frappr thingie. So, without further ado, I've set one up and added myself.

PLEASE come and join in!

Well now, I was born 'n raised in devon, England, but now I live in the Basque Country, or "Euzkadi" in the native language which sits on both sides of the pyrenees at the atlantic end of them. Here is home to the oldest spoken language in Europe (10,000+ yrs old and unrelated to any other on earth), the birthplace of Simon de Bolivar and of the founder of the Jesuits as well as the navigators for magellan and colombus. In fact there is some evidence to suggest that the basque were fishing off the north american and canadian coasts and trading with natives for a couple of centuries before colombus "discovered" the place...
But no nice little native cats :cry: Just 150 kilo monsters...

Wow, that's pretty far away. I wonder who is our most far flung member? I guess that depends on where you call "home". I'm sitting in a small, old mining town called Bathgate which is about 10 miles outside of Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. However the site "lives" on a server in Los Angeles, California.

I guess home is where the heart is and so the home is Scotland.
