Welcome to the Loonyzone from your near neighbor in the Republic of Ireland. I thought everyone on the Isle of Man rode motorcycles. That will just show you the level of ignorance you're going to be dealing with!

Good to have a fellow retiree on board. I hope you are of a suitably aged retiree. So of these fellows like to talk about what they euphemistically call music. In a recent posting I can honestly say that I had only heard of two of their collection.
