Thanks everyone!

My old man used to be pretty good at this sort of thing, so i'm hoping to pick his brain. We're also hoping to get into a TAFE course to give me the basics and to help him get back up to scratch.

I've just picked up some of your DVDs Peter, they're quite good.

Cheers for that David, but i'm from the other Newcastle (Australia). I can do a passable Jordie accent after a few beers, however.
