Good day to you all,
I am Baron Solf (or a "Pipeful of Nothing" for those NSC quiz attendees. m I joined the New Sheridan Club in 2007 whilst living in the U.K. and managed to attend a couple of the monthly meetings. Though usually living a distance a way it wasn't regular.
I have since moved to France but (partly) kept up my membership and re-kindled/connected with numerous members during the lockdown weekly Zoom quizzes and talks.
I was a part of the original online forum but was in the Club on and off, and still occasionally visit.
I look forward to meeting new faces and seeing the old familiars.
Drinks all round

Welcome aboard, Solf old chap! Jolly glad to see you here indeed - do make yourself comfortable; we have wingbacks, bar stools and various other comfy seats just waiting to be filled.
2007, eh? By George, you predate me by a year according to my worn and dog-eared membership card. Interesting to read that brief snippet of your history with the club, thank you!

Thank you Bruce, always good to see you. Likewise, old fruit, and I am grateful for your continued patronage of this branch of the club. (In case you weren't aware, however, the original is once more up and running, with a few old names floating about again, and I flit between the two now.)

Just a quick missive to congratulate you on a successful and thoroughly enjoyable esoteric quiz yestereen. It was also a pleasure to meet - albeit aethereally - the Baroness (aka Madame Générale).
It has indeed been splendid to see the NSC quiz grow into such a regular and well-regarded event; it has become a highlight of the month and something we very much look forward to taking part in when possible. Long may it continue!

Good to see you again, old boy, and no need to apologise!
I'm in the mood for an apéritif, shall we say a cognac?
