Good Morning Banjo, I just read the latest posts and this statement stands out about not living to 80. Mate, on saturday 12/9/2010 I turn 65, so in the eyes of the government I am "Officially Old", I have applied for and will receive the Old Age Pension, or portion thereof because I intend to keep working, I could'nt stand being stuck in this house with nothing to do.

Anyrate, I will be 80 in 15 years time, that is not a lot of time away and I tell you what, I want to live way past that if I can, because when I eventually fall out of my tree, I will be dead for a long, long time, no second goes at life mate!!!!;)
Now you at 38 are almost half way there, if you think 42 years is a long time think back the 38 years you have been alive and I bet you will be surprised at how quickly it has gone, so don't waste the next 42 years.:)

I said in one of my earlier posts in this Thread ( I think it was my first post, actually) we all get dealt our cards in lifes great Poker game and some of us get a Full House and some get 4 Aces, but others like you and me get cards that are harder to play, so you don't throw in your hand you play the game out, because you can still win if you stare your opponent (Agrophobia) down!!!:)

By the way, no cracks about me being an "Old Git" or an "Old Codger" by anyone on this Thread!!!:twisted:

Nobody is saying "Forget the Past" Banjo, I haven't forgotten mine, that is an impossibility, I too get flashbacks, What we are saying is learn how to handle the memories!!!:)

Banjo, do not feel "obligated" to meet me at Kotara, if you have plans with Karen , do it, she is more important to you than me. I have only made the suggestion to come down to Kotara if you have nothing to do!!:)

well just got back i went & seen Jim over at Kotara while his car was getting work done didn't realise i was there for as long as i was ,was there for half an hour . . .

Good on you Banjo, another :MileStone: :):):) Keep it going mate, you're slowly clawing back your life. :banana::banana::banana:

Yeah, nobody was more surprised than me, I got a shock when Banjo walked in the door, you could tell he was really pushing the envelope and we talked for about half an hour. Well done Banjo, you show the opponent (Agrophobia) who is in charge of your life.
I got the Low Level Coolant Alarm fitted and I notice they use the same one as the D2 V8. I am a lot more relaxed now as I don't want to cook a motor on top of all the expense I've had on this vehicle!!:D

You need to stay on the net and keep working on your problems. Some of us have invested too much time in trying to help you for you to give up now. Some things have improved since you started this thread, and other things will improve also if you persevere. as Winston Churchill once said "Never give up, Never give up, Never Never ever give up."

You know Banjo, you can't change the past or forget it, but you have ALREADY changed the present, which is just great. Think back to how you were when you started this thread and compare with now - you have already changed for the better. Isn't that great!
Now, just keep it going and you'll be fine. Look forwards, not backwards.
Oh, and it would help if you got some project happening in your life, to occupy your thinking.

You're doing well Banjo...top effort in visiting Aus...keep pushing forward;)
