For Norton-1 especially, but all; no, "HuwG" isn't code for "hug". I should perhaps have written it as "Huw G", but as with the ceremony some forty years ago where they tried to drown me in a birdbath in church, I'm stuck with the name now.My real name usually comes back to me as, "Huw Janus", or perhaps, "Huw Jampton".
BTW, I'm from the thriving musical centre of the High Peak district in Derbyshire in the UK; play folk and blues with enthusiasm but not much finesse as yet, on a Yamaha acoustic picked up from a pawn shop.
