Hello dudes and dudettes

Just joined the forum but have been listening to the show for a couple of months. I'm hooked on it. Props to Chris and the JDH for making such a great podcast.
I'm originally from Yorkshire, England but currently live in Wales. Not the most exotic place on the TLOS visitor map but we do have a scary dragon on the flag.
I've been interested in martial arts for quite a few years. I tried shotokan karate and Tae Kwon Do for 3 years while at university but came to the conclusion that I didn't have the motivation to carry them any further. I first saw the UFC in about 2001 (must have been UFC 30 or something) and from then on followed it on and off along with Dream and K1 etc. I've really got back into MMA during the past year though.
I was quite chuffed to get 3rd place on the UFC 92 challenge. I'm glad I didn't put money on the Rampage-Silva and Mir-Nog fights though, I'd have lost a bundle!
Anyway all the best to everyone, hope you had a good Xmas and have a groovy new year. The Shandy's are on me!
