Please keep comments on the main thread to selections only as it's too hard on the 3 members trying hard to sift thru' to selections. We all point out when they've got it wrong so this will help them out, hopefully Wink

Good idea Gay! If BP and Dizzy could stay on topic we wouldn’t have had a problem 😇

I don’t want to cause you too much extra work but any chance you could include the deleted posts from the main thread here?

Apparently I was the only one working and missed something?

BP & Dizzy have a lot to answer for!

And just for the record now that you and BP have your own chat corner, I only ever read the sealed sections in those magazines to know what I was up against!

I'm sorry buddy but 'moving' takes much longer than deleting & it's not as if they qualified for post of the week Wink There was about a page worth of posts which is the reason a new thread was needed Big smile

Instead, let’s all talk about me. I am currently leading (just) the W & R comps and have just made a huge run in SP from near last into 2nd (tailing the champion PT) … I think I deserve a JJ Award (bless her) for Achievement Big smile

If I post it here, can I have a JJ Award? Embarrassed

Daughter is thinking along those lines PT.  She has an hour drive to work each day.  But she's worried she might be out of a job soon anyway.  Work is struggling with the cost of petrol also.  Then she's in bigger trouble with home repayments.

The troubles are making a lot of people make up their minds on electric cars.

My brother in law messaged me out of the blue on Saturday saying it was on his mind this week.

Yes her trouble is she'll have to extend her loan to get the car.  THen if work dries up it's pointless unless she finds something else straight away.

Glad to hear our No. 1 Chitter has returned safely Thumbs Up

Though you'll probably have to work another 3 years without holidays to pay for the gas.

I sensibly stocked up before I went!

We’ve got a very, very close family on the dam side. We used to catch up at weddings and the odd funeral. Now it’s no weddings plenty of funerals.

After my cousin’s memorial today I was tempted to start a “dead pool” competition. Then thought better of it.

An older, retired family friend I caught up with has been helping out for a while with Riding For The Disabled in town every Wednesday. “I think they keep me around because no one else knows anything about horses”.

He told of multiple instances where non-verbal, disabled kids sat on a horse for the first time and started talking as soon as they were legged up.

A good man.
