Re-introduction
 
Greetings.
Although I have been a member on since 2008 - I have not really been on here much.

I was advised by another friendly user (thanks for the tip) that it would be good to re-introduce myself so people can have an opportunity to get to know me - .

Well I am Ski – rapidly reaching 50 years of age. Originally from South Wales, Ex-Royal Navy Submariner – I now teach electronic engineering to aerospace apprentices. I play the saxophone and now own 5 – Tenor, Alto and a few Sopranos. I am also a high level Archery Coach and the head coach at Accrington Archery Academy, based at Accrington Academy.

I have also recently joined the East Lancashire Concert Band based at the Civic Theatre in Oswaldtwistle.

I try to be open and honest as possible, but sometimes get things wrong. I believe that my purpose in life is to see others progress and to help people get there, hence the reason I teach and coach.

Feel free to say hello, keep dropping me messages, hints and tips.

:hehetable

Hi Ski, I've been a member of Accy web since 2004. I haven't posted very much but love reading what everyone else has to say. Lots of genuine, helpful members. Good luck with the concert band. :theband:

Hello Vecrra - thank you for the greeting - I was amazed on how friendly the band members were and how they do not mind what level you are at when joining - they were really encouraging. There was also a good range of ages from young to some quite senior members.

Close - MY father was from Poland - So my surname is Polish and Ski is the last 3 letters.

My Father in Law was Polish Stanislaw Jablonski

Ski 07-01-2014 21:07

Re: Re-introduction
 
Stanislaw was a good Polish name there are many with Stanislawski as a surname.

Mine is Suchorzewski. - pretty cool for a welsh man -

Whist welcoming you too, Ski, I ought to warn you that you are on a slippery slope mixing with this lot. You are on the downward path.

Polish, Welsh & a Bow'narrowist to boot, things are looking grim for you mate! Still ..... welcome to the Circus, but watch out for the ring master! :eek: :D

Re: Re-introduction
 
You missed out a Saxophonist - I'm sure that could have been added to the list. I can handle the ring master - its the clowns I worry about.

I often wonder how big is Accrington - it seems to stretch from Germany to America via Lancashire. Thank you for the welcome. From USA (Uther Side of Accrington) :-)
