I'm saluting the Quarterdeck now, Sirs!

Hello from Penzance in Cornwall. I have just joined. My flying days are long gone and I live as a ground-gripper with grand-parenting duties who also has to tend an oversize (5 acres) garden.
I have served with the RAF and the Army Air Corps. My only real links to aviation these days is collecting and studying Flight Manuals / Pilots Notes and roaming the better fora on the internet. I am also a member of Air-Britain. I expect I shall meet some like-minded fellow spirits here.
