    Question How did you find the U-Beaut Forums?

    I suspect that I know what the majority answer will be, but as we haven't had a poll for a while, how did you find out about the WW Forums?

    For me, Google was my friend.

    Hanging ten, surfing around and google was my friend... Now spend way too much time making stupid comments and learing from the gurus
    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

    I just had an infinite number of monkeys with an infinite number of typewriters typing randomly, and one of them came up with www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com.au

    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    I was peacefully minding my own business. Woodwork and tools were, jointly and severally, the furthest things from my thoughts.

    Suddenly! Nothing happened! There was a pause.

    It lengthened.

    Gradually I became aware of a strange tearing, rending, ripping sort of vibrationary noise thing. The wall shimmered. I stepped towards it and found myself sitting at a computer, writing about my experiences on a vessel that sproradically and intermittently became either an 18th century man o' war or an intergalactic battlecruiser.

    In order to distract myself from the odd things that took place amongst the crew of this craft, I found these forums (fora!). Oddly enough, the members of said forums are every bit as odd as (perhaps more odd than ) Lt Commander Roger (VC and Bar), Seaman Staines, Leading Artificer Groans, Chief Droid Techo Halfrit Sponcracker and their shipmates. Although, thankfully, none of the members of these forums is quite as odd as :eek: :

    My intro is not covered in the poll, although the foily one might pass for an excuse. I got the link from the Triton newsletter. I've still got a Triton... somewhere....
