A message of support

Unread post by Fretless »

We are all of us here a bit different, unusual, eccentric and odd in our own little ways.

Alright then, we're a bunch of total weirdos.

But we need each other and it is good to be there for our own when things get tough.

So, at this moment, my thoughts are going out to our good friend KarateStu, who is having a heavy time.

Hang in there Stu. Be strong, pal.

You made me cry Fret. Thanks for your support, you are indeed a caring person. I wish the world was full of people like you. Sadly you are a minority.

Wierd ? Yes, i'm as mad as a box of frogs but don't hold that against me.

Anyone else need a group hug ?

Ah, just seen your recent post, Stu.

Awful situation, there isn't a good outcome, is there?

Thoughts are with you.

Let's all pull together - even if we are as mad as hatters!!

Stu - Pray your situation improves and that you have the strength to get through it. Being a farmer, you need to be robust anyway!!!

Good luck with what's happening, Stu. I knew things were getting really bad when you started putting Naim cables in your speakers ;)

One consolation may be that Winter's (nearly) over. I play this every 1st March...

January, sick and tired of your misery
February, caught the flu and it was no good for me
March it came along
The Winter's left behind
The days are getting longer
Now Summer's on my mind

Thank God the Winter's over
December's far away
Lets drink outside at lunchtime
On another sunny day

Thank God the Winter's over
Let's get The Undertones out
Here comes another Summer
Let's dream and never doubt...
