Came in late on this, went back to the original thread and read through it. Things did seemed to get heated. Good on you for "manning up" and apologizing, I can understand your frustrations, I am spending serious money on my Landy at the moment and you wonder if it's worth it.
Anyhow, good on you and the best of luck with your Landrover!!

OK real world scenario, would you accept a generic apology like the above post? No PM, not even mentioning my username, nothing.

I'm sorry, but thats not the way I roll.

To me this generic apology has about as much sincerity as an electronic toll booth.

Some hard facts for Joker (not a personal attack in anyway, shape or form):

Life is what you make it to be, if it sucks change it. Can't is not an applicable answer "Can't means won't" and good things will eventually happen to those who have enough intestinal fortitude to make the good things happen to themselves. If you don't want to move from your own sweet version of Valhalla but there are no means of supporting yourself whilst living there, look at commuting, the rest of us can do it. ATM I'm pulling 15hr days to support my family.

We all live and learn, old or young and let the past be exactly that.

We are talking about cars after all and we are mostly grown ups and matters should not/never be too personnal.
I myself have been caught up and the heat of the moment can get the better of us at times.

Lets forget and gorgive and share a laugh as in time to come we sure as hell will laugh about it.

So welcome back Joker and hope the Disco serves you well.

Ok for starters i did not want to mention your name out of curtosey as i did not know if you wanted to be mentioned and had to write up the post as it was the right time for myself.

I'm Also sorry but "THATS THE WAY I ROLL"

A generic apology is better than nothing at all if ya ask me. I could have just come on in and forgot the whole thing and not say anything but i decided it would be the right thing to do as it will put me with peace with everyone and jesus.

Some hard facts for Dobbo (not a personal attack in anyway, shape or form(:

i reckon i have the best life in the world with my loving family right now and it dosent suck one bit. Yes i'm in a situation at the moment and YES i will pull through it as thats what you do when you have a family to look after, you work through it together and thats what brings you closer. What has my previous post have to do with anything about this apology post? i mean first your talking about where i'm living then you say i have to start looking at commuting???? I think the problem here is not myself or the apology here, it is YOU in person. YOU always brag how your a hard worker and how ppl on benifits need to harden up and get a job. i did not choose to be in this situation it just happened and such is life and i'd like to congratulate you on your HARD work ethics and hope you keep working hard so i can still get my benifits every fortnight!!


So in conclusion i have written this apology up and many have accepted it and theres no chips on my shoulder
so Problem with YOU is that your head is too far up your behind and you need to come back down to earth and have a look at the whole picture and accept what i have written. If NO well dosent worry me i'll just place you on the ignore list and continue with my woderful life here and my loving Disco.
