Oh that's fantastic Carl, well congratulations after 35 years going back to CW. Well you know I've been missing playing CW for the last 2 and a bit years, but hopefully I'm not going to be 35. I don't think I'll be here in 35. Anyway, I'd like to get back to CW that's for sure. So maybe you'll get the CW. Bug there Carl, which I got. I only got the CW because of course here in the early 90s, I had the first call sign of Golf Mike 7, Mike Papa X-Ray. And I had to get the CW 12 minutes, sorry 12 words, 12 minutes of words. Hey listen I think most of us can do that. 12 words a minute to test under my belt and to get my E-class, well yeah E-class, a full call sign. And which I did. So just thinking I'd just be doing it so I could get onto HF and that was it. But actually once I passed the test and plugged the key into the radio and went onto HF, that was me. I was hooked. I had that CW bug and most of my HF activity for the next couple of decades was all on CW. So there you go Carl, you might want to, maybe that's it. Maybe you've got the CW bug back on. You'll just unplug the microphone and just stick the key in and that's it. No problem at all. Anyway Carl, I'll throw it back to you. But first of all could you, I don't know if Robin wants to actually say hi and check in. Or you can always say check in. You can always proxy in Robin if you like. And I didn't quite catch the call. I think it was something like KC2YQE but you could maybe let me know. And you could always proxy her in as an in and out if that's the case. Or if she wants to come to the microphone, even better. Anyway back to you Carl. Oh goodness me, where are we? KB2FA, GM0, UUB.
