[Shane Drew]

Cheers John & Carrie.

Being so far away is a bit frustrating for me too, but I hope one day to meet some of you as well.

May try to make the NEC in 07? Worth a thought….

…or you guys could come to qld for holidays? :lol1:

[Peter Normington]

Can we all come at the same time Shane? We could get Rob to charter a Jumbo 😀

Peter

All the best to you Shane and seasons greets.

Peter and Lynn

[Robert Lambie]

thank you for the kind words mate… i think everyone here enjoy your posts on the boards, even the jokes 😉 :lol1: :lol1:
the distance between us all is shame, maybe one day we will get to meet you. signuk 07 would be brill! who knows… could be the biggest meet ever by then ? 😉
until then at least we can all meet here on a daily basis for a chinwag. 😀

[Russ]

Thanks Shane for your unlimited time and trouble in many ways, also to your kind hearted touch of suppling endless humour.

The pleasure has been all mine.

Regards Russ

[Shane Drew]

Thanks Friends,

Peter, the more the better mate

Rob, thanks again

Russ, I must confess I worry that I may post too much 😳 The wife thinks I spend way too much time here, but then there is nothing on telly, and where else can you actually interact with so many characters? Better than any TV show!

I am pleased that you find my posts entertaining… Thanks for your comments and support.

[Robert Lambie]

Shane i am with you on that one mate… never ending ear burning do i get… so much so, guess what she buys me for Christmas? a wireless networked laptop! she says that way i can at least sit with the family while I’m on the net. :lol1:
personally I’m not sure it was a good idea… i had my dinner with the boards next to me… watched TV with it next to me, went to bed browsing the net till 3.30am and when i woke the morning i leaned over and logged in, still in bed? 😕 now i don’t know if this is showing dedication or just plane “no life” 😳 but was the best Christmas present shes got me in years. :lol1: beats socks any day…. :lol1: :lol1: :lol1: now i just have to ditch the news paper in the toilet and take the laptop in 😮

[Shane Drew]

Rob, you sound so much like me it scares me. 😮

I have had to buy my missus her own PC with adsl because she can not get enough time on this one.

I’d leave the newspaper in the loo tho mate, given the bad news in there some days, being on the loo when you read it is not such a bad thing 😳

My wife tends to think ‘no life’ is the best explanation for ‘our’ addiction too. For what it is worth, I think she may be right. 🙄

I’ve had nothing to do all day, it is way too hot to be outdoors, so I keep checking UKSB’s but everyone must have been asleep over there! 🙁

We don’t worry about xmas, but my wife got me a bottle of Baileys Irish Cream with her holiday pay the other day, all I have to do is find a straw.. 😮

I might suggest the laptop for next time instead, see how I go….

[Russ]

Rob don’t ditch the news paper in the toilet, if you must tear it into squares and loop some string through and hang it of the door 😀 I must also stress this is not an ideal way of recycling waste release paper IT’S LIKE BLACK ICE 😉 😉

Regards Russ

[Jill Marie Welsh]

Eww remind me never to borrow your laptop Rob!
I bet it’s all sticky.
Shane, I’m glad to know you, I often feel like we are on the same page.
Love….Jill

Thanks Jill, the feeling is mutual I can assure you 😉 .

[Robert Lambie]

😳 i really should learn to slow down when typing, i cant bloody spell, thats bad enough, but im missing letters now :lol1: :lol1:

shane, if we had that sorta weather mate ide be sorted. she loves the sun and would be out lying in it. giving me peace 😉 :lol1: :lol1: :lol1:
in all honesty though, i do find the net more intresting than tv these days. not just for the boards & the great folk we have grown to know on here but browsing in general. its like having the worlds biggest library at your finger tips.

russ, too right mate… we always need backup 😮 :lol1: :lol1: :lol1:

jill, sticky? please explain? 😉 :lol1:

[Jill Marie Welsh]

Well, between the Breezer residue, crumbs from eating,
bits of haggis….you get the picture….
not to mention that I hope you always wash your hands after using the facilities!
Love….Jill

[David Rowland]

Jill… your so hot in that pic!!! 😳

Rob, wireless laptop hey… yes, can be troublesome, particularly the power cables when the battery gives in.

Good knowing u shane! always interesting to read your posts

[Shane Drew]

Thanks very much Dave,

Rob, you got me thinking about my own communication requirements now, got the urge to go down to the computer store for a look see, finished up buying one of those Navman PDA’s with inbuit GPS/road map.

Need a pilots license to use the thing tho 😳

Don’t know what the hardest part is going to be… telling the wife I just spent $1000 or trying to work out how to pay for it….. although… trying to find the money to pay for it is chicken feed compared to actually convincing the missus I ‘really trully need it’ 🙂 😳

… of course… I am blaming your wife 😮 😕

[John Childs]

Shane,

You did exactly the right thing with the Navman. I think it was somebody on this board who once said that it is easier to get forgiveness than permission. I live my life by that little motto now – that’s why I can hardly get in my garage. 😀

John, wise words I’m sure….

… trouble is, I just told the wife, and she is measuring the interior of the dog house, mumbling something about not needing a gps to find my bed tonight…. is it just me or is it looking bad for me right now 😮 ?
