Hey hey!

A forum for new members to introduce themselves to the rabble already onboard. Not compulsory!
Tell us a little about yourself, lie if you have to but keep it to just an introduction, not a car discussion.

Welcome to the forum Redbreadvan.

The Hype is undoubtedly true. The FCF is a world leader in knowledgeable and friendly advice on the core business of car problem solving and chat, but spend a moment or two perusing the Off-Topic Chat Lounge and its myriad of topics, and there's plenty of topics to enjoy, and easy to join in with.

So make your debut, and become a regular contributor.

Just to make you feel at home, I notice that Andover is the original home of at least 3 members of the Troggs so
I have shoved them up on what is known as "The Pickled Egg Jukebox"

Hello and welcome from me as well.
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Inside every old person is a young person wondering what the hell happened.
