shy talk

I have been visiting this site on an occasional basis for several months now,and I have decided that it is about time that I joined or became a member. I live in Skelmersdale, in Lancashire and I am 74 years old. I used to shoot shotguns, but now I shoot only an air rifle. I have just had a thought, in the topic title I used the word "newbie" I hope this word is acceptable. Thats all for now atb, shy talk.
