Hi guys, a froggy escaped from Mp.net.
Well half froggy, as i have macedonian origins so i am also a bit interested into Balkan conflicts and militaries.
I may not post often (you all know certainly much more than me about UK defense procurements and military) but i'll read you all with pleasure and may act as a tiny sand grain in discussion when needed.
See you all soon

Well, I've set the thread up but cannot identify how to set up a poll?

Any advice, s'il vous plait?

Do you not have a "New Poll" button next to the one for "New Topic"?

Another MP.net refugee here too.

Well, hello there. Italian dude here, mostly interested in navies and especially the Italian Navy. I know Retro from elsewhere, and I hope I'll have a nice time here.

Poor sod.

Anyways, my name is Dan, I am a Swedish national with a more pro-British leaning then then the most of you lot combined. And a Chelsea fan since I learned English in pre-90.

I think that's a bigger problem than being a Liverpool fan mate.

I konw, nowadays I almost feel ashamed. Almost.

Hello Ladies and Gents,

I was a longtime lurker on MP.net. A UK national, I have been fascinated with all things defence since I was old enough to mount a raid on the garden shed with nothing but a few mates and some cap guns. I have a background in defence and security policy but nothing makes me happier than a bit of warship construction porn!

Hi everyone!

Im British but always felt that i am a Belgian

I am interested in various countries Armed Forces, particularly Central/South America/Indochina and of course Belgium!. However i find it important for everyone on this website to keep note of Commonwealth Countries as this is a British Defence forum.

A lost Geordie from MP.Net, glad to see theres a new bastion of banter!
