Hi everybody!

Just a quick line to introduce myself - my name is Caz, and I'm really pleased to be able to say that I've just joined your team of Online Community Coordinators here at Scope!

What can I tell you about me? Well, I'm a Lancashire lass 'born and bred', though I've also travelled about a bit - living in Australia when I was little, and then spending some time in Greece more recently. I've got a few years on the clock (ahem!) and so I've done quite a few different jobs in my time, including running a restaurant with my partner who is also a chef. Then more recently, I've returned to higher education to do a research degree in criminal law at the University of Manchester - something that I decided to do because of my experiences with a condition called premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) and my psoriatic arthritis. And now I'm here with you!

When it comes to my spare time, it's music and box sets for me all the way. So, in that respect - David Bowie is a god, and you can't beat a bit of Line of Duty! Other than that, I love meeting new people and talking lots. So, I'm looking forward to getting to know you all a bit better and playing my part on the community :smile:

    Hi @janer1967,

    Thank you for the welcome and lovely to meet you :smile:

    Criminal psychology sounds intriguing. I'll bet that's been an interesting subject to learn about. 

    Looking forward to seeing you around and chatting more - as I start to find my way around the community!

    Hi @Caz_Scope and welcome to our online community!

    It's great to have you start with us and it will be fun having a fellow Line of Duty loving, David Bowie fan working beside me  :)  (Let's just not mention Yorkshire tea!) 

    Our members are a friendly bunch who I'm sure will make you feel very much at home and I think we can all learn lots from your academic studies and varied life experiences.  Enjoy and welcome again  <3

    Hi @Cher_Scope - thank you for the warm welcome!

    I'm so pleased to be a new member of the online community and I'm really looking forward to getting to know everyone here.

    Yes, quite right - no mention of Yorkshire Tea! Otherwise, this might turn into another war of the roses!! We'll just have to stick to working out who 'H' on Line of Duty really is, and debating the best track from Bowie's back catalogue.

    So much to talk about already :)

    Thank you @vikingqueen!

    I was very tempted to say exactly that, but I didn't want to push my luck with @Cher_Scope on my first day on the community  ;)
