Hello all!!

Long time no see! I exchanged a quick PM with Jonathan over on a different forum, and this site was mentioned. I thought I'd pop over and say hello. It really has been an age since I chatted to anyone here, other than Mark who I chat to on Twitter occasionally.

I'm struggling to remember when I last actually posted on either the dennis forums, or here for that matter.... so I'm then trying to think what might have changed for me...

So big news first. I'm going to be a dad on 21st of December this year. Me and the wife (Gillian) are due our first kid before Christmas. We're super excited as you can imagine!! :D

I'm due to be best man at my brother's wedding in a week and a half, so that's got me nervous at the moment.

I've developed a huge love of XBox gaming in the last two years, Call of Duty in particular. I play other games, but most of my time would be spent teaming up with mates from around Europe (primarily Ire & Uk) a few nights each. (this will no doubt change come 21-12-2011!! :lol: )

I've also started playing golf a lot more seriously. I started off with a handicap of 16 a few years ago, and have gotten it down to 10 since then. I try to get out twice a week during the summer months, and am playing this evening as it happens. (again, this will probably change in December....)

I'm working in Dublin, but living in a new house in Drogheda (north of Dublin). Well new as in 3 years ago.

So that's all that comes to mind for now. Hope you guys are well. Feel free to reply and fill me in how you all are doing!

Rob

Great to see you hereabouts again. Hope to see a little more activity from you now. (8+p

Hey Rob, really cool to see you again. And very comforting to have a face from the "old place". I demand that you put your stamp on the recommended movie thread ASAP!

As for news, I live in Lanzarote and work as a concierge for a luxury travel company. Spanish is coming on well, no kids planned and I can't swing a golf club to save my life, but otherwise, all good.

Lovely to see you :)

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.
