Hello from Scotland.
I just thought I'd pop in and introduce myself.
I am a happy user of Linux Mint 19, based in the Kingdom of Fife, Scotland.
I have tried other Linux distros in the past, but always end up in the Comfortable Sofa that is Linux Mint.
My main interests are in photography and nature sound recording, primarily using Darktable, Gimp, Openshot and Audacity.
Linux Mint, with the appropriate ubuntu PPAs means I can get nice up to date versions of Darktable etc, but still have a nice stable operating system.
So congratulations Linux Mint Team on this great release.

Welcome from south of the border! Been too long since I last visited your beautiful country. Last time was in 2012, walking & driving in the west Highlands & on Skye. Not sure my car would make it that far now ..

Re: Hello from Scotland.
Hello again.
Not sure what happened between then and now with my old account.
I've have a bit of a break from linux mint, trying various distros, and not being all too happy with them.
So here I am, back with Linux Mint Cinnamon Edition (Really enjoying it now), so I thought I'd get back into the forum.
Cheers,
Brian.

Looks like it's still intact, otherwise no post count would show on the posts you made before. Did you try a password reset?
