It only took me three years lol
I'm not really new, been reading du since 2004 by way of bartcop.
I first joined in 2008 but lost my account like everyone else when du went down. Continued reading for over 10 years than a life event happened.
I want to thank you deb55 and so many others (in the one forum nobody wants to join) that supported me during some very difficult times.
