Yes Gentlemen. I agree with the good Friar here!
And besides, I believe the common "Gopher"[Geomyidae rodentia] is ONLY endemic to the North American continent, and so because our new friend Marty here hails from that little island situated off the coast of the continent of Europe, THE LEAST you could have done was to perhaps reference the common "Vole"[Cricetidae rodentia], a species of a ground burrowing rodent of which said new friend Marty MIGHT BE a little more familiar, instead!
And so, now that THAT little bit of "unpleasantry" has been laid to rest....Welcome to the site, Marty! 
(...oh, and yes, PLEASE do not allow these jokers around here to scare you off!)  
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
