Title: Apologies and how can I help?
Post by: shnazzle on January 24, 2021, 18:16
I just realised that the majority of my posts as of late contribute little to nothing to anyone's queries or issues.
For this, I apologise. 

It's probably because I've been hanging around in this place for coming up to 8 years, 6 years or which as committee. 
I guess well and truly established as that stuffy, slightly worn armchair in the corner, covered in a throw with a slightly obnoxious pattern on it. Contributes nothing to your household but shouts at you from the corner from time to time with its loud pattern.

On that note; does anybody need any help? Is there anything I can contribute to anyone or their 2?
I think I know one or two things about these little machines but continue to learn on here.

Haha hey you know what, if someone learns from my mistakes then I'm a happy camper.

You have kept this place going, along with a few others. You know who you are! 😎

Is there anything we can do for you? 🤔

It's not really downtime to be fair. Just not sure I'm contributing much. 

But I'll try harder :) Less silly remarks

No thanks. Chances of dying here are quite high but NL has riots, people setting cars on fire and a 9pm national curfew.

You don't need to teach a cat that.
They work it out all on their own.
Same as bossing huge dogs around.

That umbrella must be at least 15 years old working on the number of cars it's been in, it's probably not even fit for purpose now 😂

I should point out that everything is tidied away under the covers as it should be and the extra wiring is beautifully Tessa taped and blended into the standard loom, I'm not a total cowboy 🤓

You're a good pal Scott and we have a shared love for our furry friends, but I have to say that was a burn and a half.3A4992ED-DC22-40D6-B1EC-F514449ED2E2.jpeg

9/11 was a Tuesday, on the prior Sunday we had booked to fly to Seattle in early October. Many flights were cancelled and many passengers were cancelling at short notice with questions about refunds.
When I finally got through to the airline the first words were " We don't give refunds for cancellations".
I replied but "what happens to my payment if you cancel " , "sorry not been asked that I will have to call you back" was the reply.
We did fly and security was greatly increased. Getting through US immigration is generally awkward. This time when we were asked " What is the purpose of your visit"  We answered "To visit our son who is resident here", " And what does he do ?
"He is a Firefighter / Paramedic"
" Welcome to America have a good visit "!

PS
Regarding the brolly it was raining very hard and I saw  a display of them and so bought it, it got back to the UK and lives in the boot of the daily and gets used occasionally when spectating in our entertaining weather.

We flew out of JFK on 10 Sept 2011. I imagine tickets the following day would have been far cheaper but didn't want any 10-year anniversary risks

Now this is the saddest thread on ROC.

Ever.

@Call the midlife!
@shnazzle
I wouldn't go that far... it's early yet.

Fishing games?
What is sadder than that?
Well I'm not one to make judgments on the habits and pastimes of others but... How's your cat disco room coming along?🤓
Buuuuuuurrnnnn

You're a good pal Scott and we have a shared love for our furry friends, but I have to say that was a burn and a half.3A4992ED-DC22-40D6-B1EC-F514449ED2E2.jpeg

Not even singed.

There is nothing sadder than fishing games.
Fact.
Except not driving a 2.
Which I belive @SuperArt is quite expert in.

Just getting caught up on this.

I'm glad to see the thread has gone the way most do from Patrick having a bad day to teaching cats to fish for umbrellas!

We all have out bad days, some more than others, but we all get back up from them and hopefully come out stronger.

Patrick you keep this place running (I know with others help/corrections ;) ) and it is definitely better off because of it.

Don't change it mate, just do what you've always done. (well with maybe a few exceptions! haha)

Following this thread could lead to a better understanding of the Chaos Theory.

My understanding of the domestic feline is that if the owner does not provide the
"correct" type, quality or quantity of food at the "correct" time, then the cat will go next door to check out what is on the menu their.
This behaviour is inbred and no instruction is necessary.

A carbon fibre engine lid for an MR2? 

I feel that many a Airtrek owner seeking fellow owners would find that link disappointing

Sorry, a touch of " Retentive Finger Syndrome " there, I had previously posted a link for Mr Petrus and apparently had not discharged my finger!

Thank you kindly sir. That's good to hear. 


It would be good to have a few more "big players" within the Club. 
Anybody feel like being an equally big part of the Club yet? :)
