hi from another newbie

Postby junior » Mon Jul 07, 2014 9:36 am

Hi everyone
Completely new to this but have been lurking around reading lots of info on here, i always had a interest in trying out this great pastime but always thought it was beyond my ability doing it at home, not having a farm in the backwoods with a little shed down the back paddock lol, but after doing some reading and thinking i have just started collecting what i need to get set-up and running so to speak, so look forward learning from the people in the know
Cheers
Jamie
