Hey AUS i just had a look at those alarms looks the goods simple to fit & simple to use not like the rest of the freelander....

Have'nt had an answer from them yet, they say you can phone them 7 days a week though, must'nt apply to EMails. Oh, well, I will wait to business hours next week and see if they reply!!!

Well i have been on a pension for a few years now because i have AGROPHOBIA servere panic disorder.i have trouble going out to the point where i have locked myself in the bathroom in colds sweats with my heart in my throat thinking i would passout or pee or crap myself..i also have done this when i have had people coming over to visit or in this case (people offering to come & help )..it has ruined my life & my immediate family (wife & kids)..you know we used to go up to our local bush (hillsborough ) when we had a nissan SWB kids loved it but it sometimes could take me an hour to get there & we only live literaly 5 min drive from it..
its been realy hard for us because our families think its a big joke .they seem to think its funny to take the micky out of me ..but 27 years of abuse mentaly,physically,mentaly sexualy..
So i dont deal with people to well cause if i have to leave or (hide)as such they dont understand so we just dont do it but its now realy taking its toll on the wife & kids..
we had to file bankrupt a few years back now & the way this rover is going it could send us there again..wife (karen is realy worried )
i had a friend who i used to do stuff with because he didnt care that if we where going some where if i needed to turn round & head for home he didnt say anything i would just settle myself down & then turnround again & keep going & catch up to him & this could happen a few times before i got there & sometime i couldnt get there but he was ok with it so we got on real good but he went & died on me & i have taken it hard & since then i havent been able to do anything realy & we used to go bush alot just for the day out to sugarloaf & out the back of glendale & up hillsborough man i miss those days we all had fun me the kids & wife plus my friend..we used to work for ourselves i am a diesel mechanic by trade havent touched tools since i done my trade 20 years ago but we used to wash & grease trucks that kept us going was good money cause we used to do about 20 trucks a week..
Now the best i do is going down to the local shops again 5min drive away but i do go for a walk round aldi the cheap shops & the paper shop gotta get me rover mags..but this rarely happens .karen does all my running around picking up parts & the like..
i seem to get on better with woman the shrink says its because most of the abuse i suffered was from my father..
hence the reason we only see a few family members ..
we thought it bout time i told use as we have had offers of help with the car..
dont know how i would handle it..but if it wasnt for karen i know i would be dead she saved me..
the best thing so far is my kids..
& i have to say i have never found so many people to offer to help when they havent even met us ..thats cool.
i can only hope that when the car is sorted i can get some part of our life back & start going back to the bush...
So we would like to say many many thanks to everyone who has offered to help...
Not trying to be sobby just thought if use new the problem it mite make it easier to understand why i cant except the offers of help but i (we) really appreciate them i dont know how i would handle people here for the time it could take...
THANKS Jason & Karen..

Over 16 years ago i tried to make an effort with my problem when it was at its worst i only had to have the phone to ring & that would send me running to the bathroom in cold sweats thinking i mite be sick or passout or worse crap or pee myself,i would think it was my father ringing before i even new who it was,,so i rang a surport group in newcastle for agrophobia,well the lady on the other end of the phone was extreemly rude & abrupt to me, as my mother & stepfather had asked me to go somewhere well guess what i paniced so i rang she was telling me just go just do it you idiot (i'm not joking) then laughed at me,that was it i felt so small & humiliated i hung up & never ever spoke about my problem ever again to anyone,not even family . Untill this origanal post was the first time & we have to say we where so shocked just to have 50 odd people click the thanx button..& now we have close to 6000 veiws & 300 replies we are enjoying it so much.we never ever thought we would have so much surport from people we havent even met .People offering advise ,encouragement , surport, we never expected any of this.It is so AWESOME there are no words to describe how much it has helped me we thankyou all so much..
Gee i even got a shock when so many people looked at my posts on my wheel carrier, i'm not the best welder but i enjoy doing that sort of stuff & its only for me so i not to concerned on how it looks ,Paint cover my welding..We have been trying to find some way i could work from home just to earn a few bucks to help out , well someone asked if i would be interested in making one for them & i thought that pretty good since i didnt think my work was upto other peoples standards,so i'm looking into it...
On another note Karen went out on wednesday for her lunchon & totaly enjoyed herself & wasnt worried for the first time about me at home alone stressing because of being on my own.fatty always rushes everywhere so as not to leave me to long by myself & now wednesday is going to be a weekly thing with the lady she went with as now i have all use to annoy now & keep me ocupied woohoo lookout wensdys lol..I have tried to use the chat thing at the top of the page but i think i am doing it wrong as i seem to be the only one there when i open it so i just talk to meself for awhile then give up..What ever happened to the little chat box thing that used to be at the top...We now have so many FRIENDS to chat with...

THANX
Jason & Karen

You are a good bloke Jason and you have lots of friends here.. The good thing is you can turn us on or off depending how you feel.
I read your words (which would be much easier with punctuation) and I'm amazed at how brave you are to share your pain with us. We all enjoy your happier posts too.



I was going to ask you to make me a wheel carrier too, but your welding is crap





















(Only kidding mate, well done - on all fronts - I can't even weld!...yet You may have to teach me one day)

which would be much easier with punctuation... ihavenoideawhatthatmean.
