[Bede]

I've been a lurker on here for a while, infrequently, but only recently registered so I ought to introduce myself as a new member.

So, er, hello.

I'm a 35 yr old fabricator welder from Stoke on Trent. I've been working for my family business for 18 years now. I have some of my work on my Facebook profile if anyone's interested.

I'm also a Land Rover enthusiast, currently owning a 110 200tdi hard top defender.

Welcome Bede - I too am from the stoke on trent area working in the accounts/office of a family members engineering company. Had a couple of Freelanders but 18 months ago moved onto a 55 plate Sorento which to be honest fairs up quite well with the Freelanders - Mark

 

[Bede]

Ooh, hi Mark. Which company, if you don't mind me asking?

Welcome to the Forum, Bede. (any relation to that Venerable bloke ?)

 

[Jim_gsxr1000]

Welcome

 

[Bede]

Cheers guys.

Yeah, the Venerable Bede is a distant relation. He taught me to worship at the church of Vale Park, although my religion has waned this past couple of years.

My name's Steve Lockett and as a toddler I pronounced my name as Beden Yockett, much to the delight of my two older sisters. They've called me Bede all my life and its kinda stuck and now everyone knows me as Bede, hence my username on the forums I use.
