Probably got the error message after posting. It does actually post so just ignore it and go back to the thread and refresh it and you will see your post.

Thanks Col and Kris for the influence... :) A hard earned retirement!


...a belated thanks Brett, I faded into the background a bit and haven't been on here since the last time :D ...(ya like that?)...things have been ripping along on the Woodie, especially since being confined to barracks by everyones pal, LockDan Andrews.... I might explore crappy old Photobucket and see if it still works, that's what sorta fucked things up, that and FBook, although in many ways its fast becoming toxic...shit there's a lot of angry blokes out there in FB land just waiting for someone to say something wrong so they can jump on 'em. Worse than here ever was, although there were a few stinkers who liked to be unpleasant at times. And if you're wondering what prompted me to come back and make a noise, it was a post by someone asking about who was still on the Forum.....so I thought I'd drop in and have a look....cheers.
