Fleur found this buried in another thread and rightly felt we should have a chance to welcome MikkY:
Hello everyone! My name is Michael, but please call me either mikky or deckerdude, it doesn't matter which really as i cannot for the life of me find this ruddy ''signature box'' thingy!! I started Shotokan Karate about 24 years ago now, and had a job which meant i could travel to the club, but my firm relocated and i was unable to train 'cos they took my transport away from me! Good job i was only a White Belt at the time! Anyway's, through one thing and another, and through the fullness of time, i am now back to my beloved Shotokan.....and STILL that White Belt! (Actually, same GI&BELT!!) I train with the Sussex Shotokan Karate Do Club, in Broad oak and at the Bexhill Leasure Center. I had aspirations 24 yrs ago to get Black Belt with all the trimmings, NOW i just train for the pleasure of doing Shotokan&especially Kata&have no such aspirations, well...maybe to Purple Belt!?! Brilliant site this, hope to come back often to pick brains and the like about my chosen art if thats ok!?! Bye for now mikky.

Hello Mikky & greetings from western Canada. You must have been doing something right if you can still fit into the same Gi & wear the same obi, as 24 years ago. `What`s with that`.. A few of us will be envious of that fact.. Even though there is more of me to love, I still do that `remember when` thing.. Hope you have a sense of humour, as it will help with some of the critique that you might receive on posts. We take our Shotokan seriously & will agree to disagree, but we do so with good intentions. Oh & some of us can be rather opinionated also, but that can make it fun. So jump on in & ruffle some feathers.. Osu Paul B
