Hi to all. I am new here
Edited: I love the beach and bush. I love my arts and crafts mainly knitting, sewing, 5d diamond painting and cross stitch. But at the same time I can build things with wood, I love to garden, I am not shy of dirty work. I can service my own car (when I have one) and fix most things around the house.

Hi @Ripped-apart . Welcome to the forums! It's nice to meet you. I'm a Community Guide here and one of my roles is to help new people here around the forums. You might like to start by telling some people 3 things about you as a talking point. For example, what are your favourite hobbies or sports or places to visit? Do you have a favourite music band or artist? You can find different areas on the forums by clicking on the tabs in the main menu and looking up different forum posts of interest like All Things Sport... or Re: Craft Corner.Number 4 attempt . There's a thread where forum members say hello each day called Good morning which you might like to join in on. Using the @ Button brings down different peoples names and thread ideas to help you get around the forums.
I hope you enjoy being part of the forum community and I look forward to seeing you around. Take care!
Judi9877☺️
