    Good Idea Banjo, I was waiting to see if he replied but been a bit quiet. I might send him a quick text first and see what comes back. I'm sure he has a lot on him plate at the moment so can be understandable. Hope that's all it is. I'll send a message from all of us.

    Mate as others have said hang in there. Sometimes to get to where we are going we need to wade through the swamp but the swamp eventually ends.

    Please do. It might give a sense of perspective.
    /QUOTE]


    Lets just say, I have to drop, 18K to get back to where I was a few months ago.

    2 rooted Land Rovers
    2 dead horses from 2 separate freak accidents (a devastated wife and daughter on both times, plus excavator and vet costs)
    1 knocked off mountain bike (It was my only form of personal transport and and a cheap form of enjoyment at that present time)
    plus all the normal crap that life chucks at you


    I didn't let it all wear me down. Instead I bought my wife and myself a V8 town car, her a new horse, and myself a cheap classic sports car, lots of Chocolate, wine and curries. I also put on a few kg's by knocking down a few VB's. It's taken a few months, but I can see eventually see a light at the end of the tunnel.

    REMEMBER

    Life is just a series of ****ty incidents, there are good, fulfilling ones and damn right stinking messy ones. You just have to have a source of or enough banked coin to buy enough bum paper (when needed) to wipe the messy ones away quickly and savour the good fulfilling ones.

    Occasionally, you get a dose of the runs, and no matter how much bum paper you have in the bank, you are wiped both figuratively, emotionally and financially. At this point in time, when your eyes are watering and your bodies shaking and you have that burning ring of fire. There's nothing left to do but perform the work of a pseudo arsehole and start ****ting in piles, eventually you'll get it all organized, be it in piles of texture, stench, volume, importance or whatever. You'll then be able to sit back take a look, say God help me, look at this mess, have a laugh and then bit by bit, start cleaning it all up.
