Kia Ora!
Well I'm new here (obviously xD). :bye2:
My username is my first name and my middle name translated into LotR Elvish...a virtual cookie to anyone who can figure out what my names are :P
I'm from the land of the long white cloud, sheep, and an overly stereotyped farmer's outfit consisting of gumboots, stubbies, a black woollen singlet and a cowboy-looking hat.
To avoid this beginning to sound like I'm filling out a dating profile or something, I enjoy long walks on the beach, riding horses and eating snails in my spare time.

(Okay, the long walks on the beach is true. I haven't ridden a horse since I was 7, and snails are disgusting.) :D

I'm fairly good-natured unless something happens to tip that balance, which it hardly ever does so don't worry about offending me. I am very opinionated on certain subjects though, and I occasionally make the odd sarcastic comment but I try not to let anything like that overrule my posts. I love answering questions and talking to people, so feel free to PM me anytime on anything! :)

Right now I'm not sure what else to put here, so if ya wanna know anything more about me, throw as many questions as you like in my direction.
Ciao!

That was a great intro post, MY. ;) (mind if I call you that?) it's nice to meet another new member... and I hope to see you around the forum. Anyway, my name is Calloniel but if you want you can just call me PD... it's my nickname from long, long ago. :P or you could call me Call if you want. Or Cally. Anything works, really. :-D But this is a wonderful and friendly site and I'm sure you'll have a great time here! If you need any help or if you have questions, feel free to send me a quick PM. :)

:bye2: hope to see you around!

Hullo!

I'm Larael [or Lar, Larry, Larrie, E-Lar, etc.] and I must say that was one of the best intros I've read in a long while. Trust me when I say I've seen a lot of intro posts. Lol. Anyway, I'd totally dub you Melda, however we've already got a Melda running about here and I'd hate to get the two of you confused. Maybe I'll stick with MY until I can figure out something more creative.

If you can't tell, we're very into nicknames here, no matter how short your name is. :P Anyhoo, enough of my ramblings. I hope you enjoy the forum and I hope I'll see you around. :)

Haha! I found out your first name as well, by the way. Is it Mandy? I guess I only get half a cookie if I got it right. *shrug*

Half a cookie for Larael!

And thanks for the welcomes guys, feel free to call me whatever. I'm not fussy xD

Jax, I should have mentioned something about the land I come from also being the land where a certain few movies was made rather more famous in a worldwide sense after the books already were a huge hit, Narnia and Lord of the Rings inclusive. :D

Ah I see. *nodds* Yes that does make more sense to me.

I met a couple from Newzeland last year, they were over here in the states.

It's a pretty cool place over there.

Errrm Mel, (just noticed this :teehee:) one thing you should know about this forum is that it doesnt matter if it sounds like you are filling out a dating profile as most of the membership that is active is female :P

Im not kidding, there is maybe a handful of active male members I know fo that are around lots :P So, don't worry about lotsa guys sending you PM's saying "You sounded really hot in your [s]dating profile[/s] intro, can we meet up?"

Well, I can't speak for them mind, but Im not sure. It could go either way :teehee:


Its how you react to it :P :P :P :P

Ill go now :roll::lol:
