Hi,

I wasn't thinking that you were trying to "Text while Riding" like everybody...

Thanks,

Hello Paul, welcome from SE Michigan (just 20 Mi north of Canada) :smilie_happy:
I was told that soccer games in Scotland can be down right dangerous, so I assume MCs are a much safer hobby?
Like I went to Canada to the fights and a Hockey game broke out!
I'm a newbie too by the way. So far...
