Welcome aboard KP
One bit of advice I can offer at this stage - if you are printing from within a cupboard - however large - use low-odour chemicals. Same goes for anyone printing without ventilation. This is not so important with film as you can do all the processing in a well ventilated room in daylight using daylight tanks.
A citric acid based stop-bath such as Ilfofix and a low-odour fixer such as Fotospeed's SB50 are essential for me - even with my (not massively effective) fan running... I've not used enough developers in open trays to be sure of which ones have a particularly low odour, but Adox Neutol WA suits me well.
I'm particularly liking your shots on flickr taken at twilight - a great mood to them
Have fun!
