    Greetings from (not so) sunny Scotland.

    I'm posting on what will be our company account (note to self - must seek out a mod next) - we're a small team of 4 obsessive stackers who have just recently turned what was a hobby into work.

    At least it seemed like a good idea two months ago... when we began setting up what we hope will become the go-to directory for precious metals.

    One of us is a numismatist, the other three are firmly in the bullion camp.

    We differ wildly in our forecasts for the metals and political allegiances but come together in our near evangelical gold-buggishness.

    I really look forward to getting to know you and hope we can bring something useful to the forum.

    all the best

    Mac

    Hi and welcome!

    Scotland seems like a very nice place, at least from the pictures taken by my cousin who is studying there.

    Which currency will you use after independence? I believe Stirling and the Euro won't be available to you.

    Personally I doubt we'll get independence, but if we did we're keeping pound sterling - that was just a scare campaign from the "No" campaigners.

    I did hear that an independent Scotland would drop the VAT on silver coins to zero... going for the stacker vote :D

    Me I'm in Edinburgh (South East Scotland) and we work in East Lothian, 50 yards from the sea. Apparently Dunbar's the sunniest spot in the UK...

    Great intro and welcome to the forum :)

    PM Goldpelican about your account. There's been some changes in how companies interact with the forum.

    Thanks House - I emailed "Admin" on registering to say this was a company account, as I spotted that in the rules, so I'll wait and see what happens. Maybe I get a special badge :cool:

    Yes was in two minds to register as myself and have a footer disclaimer, or go for company. We've got nothing to sell anyway.

    Thanks - Don't talk about the midges... bane of my life. Just typing about them is making me itch.

    Thanks - that's the EXACT look I was going for :)

    Our logo was actually designed by my 5y/o daughter. If I was in the office I'd scan the original - it's not quite so mammarian, but a little more crayon.

    She meant it to be a pirate doubloon (blame Jake and the Neverland Pirates) and she's very proud her design is on a website - bless.

    Some pay millions for a logo - I gave her an extra GBP pocket-money.
