Why the name change?
I thought someone somewhere would have mentioned it earlier.
It's simple. I registered and didn't know that my username and ID would be the same, rather stupidly. I was in a hurry to post in the Campaign section on a certain issue. It was never meant to get to 11k + posts and become an addiction. I intended to rack my brains and come up with a better username in time. Seen as most refer to me in the abbreviated form of Pino, Pina, tw@t or Pinno, I thought Pinno would do in the absence of a creative moment despite 8 years of posting bollox.
Now, what's the object?seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

2nd Q: No.The wheel grips whatever it grips.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -
