Deja Vu?

I'm sure we've had the same discussion before, with the same person asking questions, only thing that's changed is the username! :lol:

I think everyone should introduce themselves - not necessarily have to give personal name but some info. As you say more than one account is against the rules, but in any case it's nice to know who is speaking.

Re: IG's, aren't they supposed to be an older, more historic breed than the whippet?
