Καλώς ήρθατε - υπάρχουν πράγματι δύο ασυμβίβαστες τοποθεσίες εδώ - τις γκαλερί και τα φόρουμ - δεν επικοινωνούν πολύ καλά μαζί - μην ανησυχείτε - είναι το παράξενο σπασίκλα γύρω για να σας βοηθήσουν - �*χετε βρεθεί δύο τ�*τοια άτομα που �*χουν ήδη - αλλά και πολλά άλλα είναι δεν είναι τόσο χρήσιμο - ώστε να προειδοποιούνται - ελπίζω ότι μπορείτε να καταλάβετε το «Heath Robinson" χάος που αφθονεί εδώ - να απολαύσετε την παραμονή σας - αν είναι δυνατόν - Gil

I hope your English is better than my Greek Eamfos.

I have looked at your gallery - a good start - keep up the good work.

I have to say I find the translation of the Greek back into English fascinating!

Who did your translation - a Turkish waiter from your local Khabab shop. !?!?

Glad you at least found it "fascinating"! - Help alleviate the boredom - did it ?

Get an academic to translate it next time - or simply use Google - at your peril.

A loose translation is :

"Welcome - there are actually two incompatible sites here - the galleries and the forums - they do not communicate very well together - do not worry - it's the weird nerd around to help - you have found two people who have already - but many others are not so useful - so be warned - I hope you can understand the " Heath Robinson " chaos that abounds here - enjoy your stay - if possible - Gil"

Hopefully the originator was able to translate it better then you.

Yes, Google translations are never very good.

Must be YOU - I have no where near enough academic qualifications - always found English too difficult.

But Greek did come in handy during my scientific studies.

Fair enough. I have no issues with being a nerd. What where your scientific studies?

Psychology - or, in it's longer form - 'how to make friends and influence people'

Is than an aspirated "h" that slipped into the word "were" - The English often use them at the beginning of words - probably a fallback to the Norman(French) invasion - or was it just a typographical error - similar to the many I make here - and elsewhere ?

So is it Where???? If so - The University Of Strathclyde/Jordanhill College Of Education / ........etc

If it is Were ???? Physics / Mathematics/ Psychology................etc

Need I go on ?

I will need to watch - maybe I am turning into a "nerd" too.

Hello Forseti - welcome - wanna take over? - this is all getting a tad tiresome - he's too good for me.

Fairy Nuff.
