BBC Focus Magazine

[Hanno]

Hello to all. Better late than never to introduce myself I suppose. I've been reading Focus for about a year now, after buying a copy to read on a plane trip, and it has been a must-read for me ever since. Here in Australia, we get each issue a bit late, but I've made sure the newsagent puts one aside for me each month. I just love the wide array of topics and the quality of the writing, as well as the often quirky humour of the contributors.

Love the idea of the forum as well. Please keep up the great work, Focus.

Hello and welcome Hanno, good to have you and I hope you enjoy being here, we have quite a few Australian members but only a few bother to post which is a shame.

Thanks for the warm welcome! It's summer here in the land downunder, so there's a lot of drinking to be done - hard for many of us who are committed to our drinking to post (most of the time, we have enough trouble typing as it is, without the drink to complicate matters). My contributions to the national economy through investment in beer doesn't begin until Christmas day, as I'm not on holidays just yet.

Hi Hanno. Really envying your summer. It's freezing here, snow on the ground and everything frozen solid

Welcome to the forum !

Pfff, just rains here like most of the year and where I currently am is little different climate wise.

Anyhoo, g'day mate and welcome along to the forum..., I'll just get my coat...

Hello guest, an interesting username and not one I recall seeing in the approval queue recently?

I regret to say that this is not a suitable username for this forum as it prevents anyone else signing onto the wider website as a 'guest' and so could I possibly ask you to change it voluntarily?
Otherwise a new username will have to be substituted on your behalf.

Either way I hope you enjoy your time here all the same.
