In response to a couple of posts recently, sorry for my prolonged absence. Apart from quickly logging on at odd intervals, I've done almost no posting for about the last 6 weeks. So in response to (I think it was aramco - John) and anyone else, sorry for ignoring you. Not deliberate.
Also to Sammy Q, although I've promised to E-mail Claymore (Brian) personally some weeks ago, I haven't yet done so - but it WILL be done later today, I promise.
Several reasons:
1. My wife has been in hospital for about 10 days each as an in-patient twice in the last couple of months - added to which there have been several day-long visits to out-patients for more tests. In present condition she is not able to drive herself - not that I would even allow it;
2. My back has recently been playing even sillier buggers than it usually does recently;
3. A major (for me) project (which will be written up and posted soon) had a deadline for the new owner to come here from about 700 Km away together with his trailer to pick up end March - it's too big to go in either of our cars. A deadline which I've now missed (thank goodness the new owner was very understanding)!
All in all it's been a bit of a struggle recently, and to roughly translate a common saying here, I've been "standing beside my shoes" for a lot of the time recently.
So apologies to anyone who missed me/asked for me. Will get back into the swing soon, starting off by E-mailing Claymore today.
Cheers all, good to be (more or less) back.
