Welcome to HoP, I'm new as well myself, we should be running into each other on the beginner threads for certain.

This is going to sound dumb, but what is Marmite? I'm from like Delaware and know nothing of European spreads (I'm assuming it's a spread like Vegemite (thanks Men At Work's "Land Down Under"!)and Nutella. *did find a few of the questions a touch odd personally*

Well anyways, "Hi!" and have a good one!

EON: We are odd people. tongue2

Marmite is a yeast spread made from left overs of the beer brewing process. It is vaguely similar to Vegemite. Nothing at all like Nutella.

BigE: Welcome to the madhouse. Good choice of spreads as well.

By toys we meant poi, staff, diablo etc. Which do you use. (Amazing how many people get that one wrong... :P)

Anyway, welcome and mind the squirrels.

So, Welcome! Hope you enjoy your time here. You also remind me that I need to catch back up on my Janny Wurts. I hear she's got a new Alliance of Light/Pavarian Chronicle/Whatever it's called by now book out
