Hi, welcome to the forums - I grew up on 90's anime too (Tenchi Muyo, Moldiver, Dangaioh, Cyber City Oedo 808 etc) though I have to say watching series from even 10 years ago compared to today is like night and day. Amazing how far things have come.

Unfortunately I'm not near Wales, but I am a programmer so if you need any help then I'm happy to do what I can

Good luck with the move!

@UnknownFate: Probably yes, because I know a person that would help me for my relocation here in UK. My future? Don't know.

I heard alot about job applies in Wales, they need alot of programmers :O Anyway I never been into university for that nor in school unfortunately, but I really want to learn everything, Java/JSE2/Jscript isn't for me

@Ross: Wow, I never seen an Admin that would be helpful for a Newbie! Well, I have to ask you something via PM soon even because I will be new in UK and probably I have to get know how I can do there for my studies. I like alot to be an IT Administrator and I started something with Windows Server 2003 (Active directory) and Linux (I have got some hardware issues to an old computer that I've installed Debian Shame).

Anyway Thank you for your help! You will receive a message soon! ^_^

@MonkeyWonder: Grazie per il complimento! Qualche volta potrņ esserti utile con l'Italiano se ti va ^_^ Grazie del benvenuto!

Welcome! One of my lodgers was Italian and left home for the same reason; lack of opportunity. He wasn't quite what I was expecting. I taught him how to make pizza, for one thing...

Stereotyping? Now if your lodger couldn't rescue a princess from a giant fire breathing turtle or fix my pipes I'd be surprised.

For a nice pizza you have to get the right ingredients, when I will be in Wales I surely get my groceries from Italy spending a bit more. Anyway my older brother lived in there (Newcastle Upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear county) for almost 2 years and half, and there learned to make a pizza even because he never be a pizza-man, but yeah, he did the right thing doing something good ^_^

Anyway really? I know, most of my people want to be there forgetting the fact that they want to see London but not the rest. I am sad for this because England is beautiful somewhere.

Oh, I forgot my story! Thanks ShinAsura ^_^

Anyway, my main interest is principally the technology things and mostly computers. I grew up with them at the age of 4-6 with the first consoles. From 2006 I did everything by myself, building every PC to my own, and I get knowledges to build and setup PCs because as a stupid as I was, I spent alot just to build a PC from a tech store. Anyway I am proud of it because I have got some skill.

And one of my most favourite thing that I love is to travel and get between with my motorcycle. It's not a real one, but a Maxi Scooter that I consider something more than a Maxi Scooter. I am poor, then I can't afford a new motorcycle, but soon and someday I will get something similar in my life. When I was traveled since 2007 I reached (almost) everywhere with two wheels and a 150cm3 engine at 15hp of power under my seat. So... I love to get abroad somewhere And I will do the same with my moving. Then that's my hobbies for now.

Anyway, I have PS3 and PSN ID, p2501_lynx

I ride a Kawasaki ER5, she's an older girl (1999) with a lot of miles (42,000; but cost me a mere £300, plus about £150 in parts when I got her so cheap as chips). I've just bought her some new shoes, replaced the bearings and I'm waiting on a new front disc, pads and service items. Still gets up to 110 and beats most cars on the dueller

I've got a 70 mile round trip to work/uni each day so it's perfect for commuting.

A 150cc scootay should still get up to at least 70MPH I'd have thought, my old 100cc speedfight 2 would do 60mph all day long without any mods, and my honda cbr 125 would do 80mph (downhill with the wind behind me )

He left the plumbing to me however and my end of town isn't very popular with princesses. Prostitutes though, we have by the dozen along with the odd drug dealer and murderous kebab shop owners.
