Rob Roy Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) Welcome to the ASYLUM Dennis. I'm Roy from Scotland. Yes sir, retirement is great, I've been retired for four years now and I've only just finished page ONE of the "BOSS'S" TO DO LIST . After forty odd years in the wood butchering trade I suppose it's only natural. Anyway Dennis you couldn't have found a better place than the VILLAGE. Anything you want to know is here, no need to wear out your fingers looking for a better place just ask and an answer will be forthcoming in jig time. And you'll be giving us some tips too. The more the merrier. Plenty of pictures too, we love pictures here. So come on in and ENJOY yourself and have a bit of FUN too. We can be serious sometimes. . Rob Roy.

LarryEA Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 Dennis, Glad you could join us and for a welcome I've made a 'bisque' and it looks soooo good. Do you have a lobster you could put in it? I have a pie crust ready, got any frozen blueberries? Oh, and as a fact, I DO HAVE A MAINE COON CAT. As for upgrading, why not just get a Delta 40-694 as a primary and keep the Craftsman as a spare. Stop in the Coffee House and I'll treat. Rob Roy 1 Quote
