Getting to know eachother

[bluey17]

Hey Guys,

I'm only new to the punting board, but there seems to be a pretty good community feel about it and its a great place to read. Not sure if anyone else gives a rats but I thought it could be an idea to learn a bit about each other (nothing too serious). Could maybe do...

The point wasn't to take the piss out of me, but to have a go yourself

I'm sure your intentions are good. Most of the flak you're copping is from angry punters who've just lost their hard earned so I wouldn't make too much out of it.
