I have become an occasional visitor to this site nowadays, as I found Greener pastures ! I do still have a look in from time to time, to see what some of the oldies are up to, and I had also taken a reserved liking to Young Simmo, as at times he can be an interesting and Funny '' shall we say Individual '' [ lol ] B...
