Old codger with sawdust in his veins currently in the San Francisco Bay area. Soon to move back to Europe in his dotage and plague you all from nearer afield ! I'm a building contractor, or was, so I'm hoping to learn a few chops from the 'professionals'.

Welcome Mulk.

You want to leave SFO :o Can we swap? I love the whole Bay area, Marin Headlands - used to work for a company based in Alameda and spent many a happy time in the area.

Cheers

Welcome to the forum :)

San Francisco... mmm hollowed out sourdough loaf filled with clam chowder.... and the first time I got taken for a 'senior' when I asked for a ticket for something. Wondered for a while why i paid less as i went in. lots of good memories from our SF visit.

Welcome aboard Mulk.

Only been to SF once by had a good trip. Took in some great Mexican food in some deep dark back alley place in The Mission. Cops told us we were fine so long as we stayed in between certain street numbers! :)

Ah ! Thanks guys ! I didn't think anyone would respond…

Well yeah, another * day in paradise.

Thing is, I can no longer masquerade as an "American Person".

I am not, and I don't approve of the current global hegemony.

I can no longer pay taxes to support a terrorist organization.

Hell, I just want to butcher wood in my dotage, in some un-warlike place.

Call me an old Hippie, and I'll take it as a compliment !

Again, Thank you all for the welcome.

As you can imagine, I am very hard pressed with administrative muck concerning divorce and expatriation.

Forgive hiatuses in my presence here, at least till I can re-establish in Europe.

I do have some requests for help and inforation regarding the shipping and use of my American tooling in Europe.

I'll get around to that discussion by and by…..

Moderator note: Please ensure that this topic does not continue as a political discussion but instead concentrates on questions posed regarding the practicalities of repatriation etc
Thanks

Mulk, Your opinions on a whole range of topics are most welcome - just stay away from opinion on politics, religion and individuals and you should be fine.

Cheers

@9 that would be ……difficult.

I think I'd better restrict myself to practical matters.

Not that political issues are not of practical significnce to wood-workers.

I'll treat it as a dinner-party, where such matters are taboo until the ladies have retired and the Port is circulating……
