That's how SLAM started. Now we're, what?, 20 active?


So, there is hope ;)
But we could stay with SLAM and call it Scandinavian instead of Swedish

Hmmm....
NLAM sounds somehow shitty :?

And I think we would just be 2  lol

As to names, just do that the Scots did, as SLAM and GLAM are taken they've broadened it up a bit to come up with something appropriate, even if it does sound like something on the menu at McDonalds. :D

We'd love to include you, I am sure. We already have a few Swedophone Danes and Finns on the SLAM board. JJust to make sure, you are Norwegian, right?

Your like Galland then. Claims to be Swedish but is really a old Frieslander feldtwebel or something like that. ;)

Well it works on so many different levels, not only is it the Scottish prefix meaning son of, it also links with Scotlands infamous poor diet and high rate of heart disease!

No one seems to want to be honest about this... it's British Lead Adventurer Masons.



Does THIS mean I can join, then?

I'm in Youngstown, just a stones throw across the border! I could make the trip for a CLAM.
