Hiya Captain, and herzlich Willkommen!

If you ever have any serious language problems, let me know, and I'll translate for you. Mind you, sometimes I don't understand everything - especially when it's slang from down under... :mrgreen:

Nae bother. (That's Scots for "it's quite alright". :wink: )

Is there any particular reason for the name you have chosen? Are you a captain?

hello Ina. To answer your question. A nick I got when taking time working in London. I like the drink black rum Captain Morgan and cocacola. Before they named me Gruppenführer. This I did not like. Then "here is the Captain" I thought more friendly. So I use it. I have a pilot license but this does not make me a captain. :wink:

I believe in peace and disarmament.

Well the silly pirate name stayed. I dont have much else to say :thumbright:

Captain is definitely nicer than Gruppenführer... :sunny:

(Now somebody is going to ask what that means, I bet!)

Well, if you want it to be all German, it would be "aus Schottland"...
