I thought I was more or less alone! Tried to spread the word about this excellent site to CAMRA members at the Halifax Beer festival in the UK last week. Shaun Hooke. West Dublin

Shaun,

Welcome to the group. I know exactly how you feel. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt="" title="Laughing" /> I am about to move from the UK to the Dublin area and I thought I'd be more or less alone too! <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt="" title="Crying or Very sad" /> All I had was a single contact via the Craft Brewing Association who I have now informed about this site too but I don't know if he has joined yet. Are you here David O'Shea? <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_question.gif" alt=":" title="Question" /> I was very happy to discover the site and my wife commented that this was the only site I was on for the first few days. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt="" title="Laughing" />

I am also encouraged by the way the membership has grown so fast in the short time since I've been a member. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /> I was member no. 36 when I joined on 23 April and now, just over a month later, we are at 54 members and the memberlist has gone on to 2 pages!

Cheers, Les
