Just Country and County.

I am living in Lincolnshire in England

If you click here you will see the Mudcat Locator, which, if it were a bit more updated by some of our members, would tell you where a lot of us are now. Oops! I just realized that my own listing is wrong! I am now in Dallas, Texas, USA.

This gives me an excuse to get on my Hobby Horse about Members Profiles. If we all put profiles up it would be so much easier sorting who is what and where.
Anyway welcome to the Cat Villan - I am West London UK , Villan ,

I was a bit confused because I have seen a few posts and they all appear to be from United kingdom.
Is this an American Website?

I think, Max (the God of Mudcat) allows everyone in - wherever he/she comes from. Even me (from Germany).

The server is located in the US, but the postings come from around the world (at least from around the earth - so far no extraterrestrians...)

Villan..Mudcat and the database originated and developed on the east coast of the US,(the 'server' is in eastern Pennsylvania) but it didn't take long before it was world-wide, and there is an amazing bit of cross-cultural meeting happening now. A lot of the UK folk 'indulge' in both the chat room and banter on the threads, it seems...partially because they know each other RT.

Another international site which many mudcats find their way to is
www.paltalk.com We conduct "jams" there in the "music rooms" and if
you have a microphone and speakers you can "chime in" if so inclined.
Amazing use of technology! A room I often host there in the music
area is "Mudcat Live Acoustic Jam" which is often populated by a lively mix of musical characters from all over the globe. You might hve better luck finding us if you click on "Adult" . I plan to open that room on Thursday night, as I often do. Look for announcements in the forum.

Welcome to the Mudcat, Villan.

I'm from the US (Rhode Island, originally). My husband, Jack the Sailor, is from Newfoundland, Canada. We now live in Alabama (US) but that could change at any time. The Mudcat locator says I'm in West Virginia, and I need to change that, but I think I'll wait until I think I'll be somewhere long enough to make it worthwhile.

Born and raised in Washington State, as described above by Don Firth, though for many years now (due to a move with the now-ex) I've been Under the other "X" in Texas. Except that it is awfully tempting to describe any of we residents of the U.S. as from the "Country to End All Countries" (if Dubya doesn't get his grubby hands off of the trigger!)

By the way...that other post about what you look like ... ?

The description of myself was a joke but I haven't figured out the usage of the funny little marks that lets everyone know you're kidding.

Obviously I haven't figured out alot of things (especially about discussion forums). Be patient with me.

I have noticed that nobody answered the question about age. My guess is an average age of over 40. Myself 56 going on 14! Which is a bonus. I thought I was 57. Its a good thing to get at least a year younger on your birthday.

I'm an Aussie born and bred - always lived somewhere in NSW. Born in Parkes, spent my childhood in Goulburn, then moved to Sydney so my parents could send me to a prestigious high school, which I hated. Then got married, lived in various places on the Central Coast, then a year in Kempsey (which was one year too long), then back to Sydney. For the last 25 years I lived in the Ryde/Gladesville area, and am now in the Inner West, in Earlwood.

In answer to Little Robyn's question as to why certain 'Catters aren't listed where they should be: Entries for the Locator can only be initiated by the individual Mudcatter, themselves. Otherwise this fun-loving lot would have Little Robyn living on Kwajalein or some such place.

Yes, art, send a message to Pene Azul (aka Jeff) to add or correct personal info. People, check your info periodically. If you change location, email address, etc., & don't correct, the info becomes pretty useless.

Thanks,
