Hi again.

Postby Ctapher » 14 May 2006 22:31

Hey there, I used to be on this site about 9 months ago - lost access to internet and my old account and password - I don't think this matters though as I never really posted that much while on. I do find this site and all those involved to be extremely helpful and I just wish to thank everyone. This is an excellent hobby, I find it at times extremely soothing. There is that extreme rush that I get when I find myself opening a lock I have never been able to before.

May you all have the causes and conditions that lead to happiness, or at least to opening that bugger of a lock you are working on. :)

Be well

C Tapher.

Hi all :) , just a quick post to introduce myself although there is not a lot to say. I am a total beginner although I have done some reading on the subject and managed to rake a Yale lock about 4 yrs ago :? but then went to Uni to do a bit on PC security etc.
I have now decided to get back into lock picking etc and stumbled across this excellent site.
Hope you all will be kind and once again hi to all.
