Hi everyone I am new here and I should apologise immediatley!! I am not just a techno phob but also pretty useless when it comes to all things mechanical. I therefore will be asking some rather silly questions in this forum but please accept my weakness and help where you can

Thanks

And don't worry about the name. Like I stated in the Why do you call yourself that thread, you are what you are!!

G'day from the colonies. You have come to the right place to ask silly questions, just be aware that you might get a few silly answers. With the experience in this forum, we can give you suggestions/instructions/info to solve most problems.

The best way to become strong is to accept and understand your weakness. None of us have problems admitting to the fact that our birds make us weak in the knees whenever we lay eyes on them (and make us strong when we ride!).

Hope you learn all you need to. Welcome.

Maybe we need a thread for romantics to write odes to their beloved birds.

I am simply trying to get to the essence of blackbird ownership. Obviously you understand where I'm coming from.
