    Absence..................

    Been off the net for quite a while - I've been unwell, and to add to the misery, my cold water cistern sprang a terminal leak, and caused a flood, which stressed me out somewhat (!!). I've managed to eventually arrange a replacement, but all this has left me in a fragile state. I'm feeling a bit more optimistic, but any benchtime is not likely for a while - all I want to do is sleep at the moment. I'm afraid I've let my 'spots on the internet' slide, but I'm hopeful of resuming the service - it may be at odd times of the day, when I surface!
    Keep Safe All!

    Absolutely no need to apologise. Your health and floods trump this hobby.

    Hope you're feeling better.

                    Ah yes Dave, That old thing called "life" caught up with you a bit aye?
                    Don't worry though, you are not alone.

                    Have been "off" for a few days myself, you see the "old man" just can't seem to stay out of trouble (or hospital).
                    And not from any of my many ailments, but because I still think I'm 35 at times...always a mistake.

                    Taking a tumble in the woods doing something I should have told the person I was doing it for
                    to go to Hell.
                    Of course every one over bloated the situation and there I was being trundled
                    of to the docs where I made a real spectacle of my self to the point that the Missus
                    said "Next time we'll let you lie there!"

                    Not taking into account that I walked over a quarter mile back out grumbling about
                    a lousy bump and a scrape or two. The wife gets all teary and says when will you ever grow up?

                    You'll be fine and back at the bench soon enough,

                    Cheers! Jim.

                      Please take care Dave. Hope you're back on track soon. Like Alan said, We (the Rabble) aren't going anywhere any time soon. Just take it slow Sir....

                      Prost
