Thanks.
Lol, I'll make sure I'll stay clear of the Marillion topic (luckily, I have terrible memory for lyrics).
Any other "real life" topic I should avoid? (D&D by any chance?)

Hi June, welcome to The Shed
We're pretty harmless here, most of us are "of a certain age", but we will always welcome you young'uns (  I started work the year you were born...), especially if you bring your own washing up gloves, cake recipes & a large quantity of good beer
...and if you have any spare air freshener, that'd not go amiss...
