Peter, Mon did a great job and it shows what awesome people we have here on TRF.

I have to admit, I was a little late in getting my act together, due to some major disruptions in my life, and I know its not an excuse, just my way of saying sorry.

I hope you recover and hope you bounce back sir!

Nice gesture gentleman. Hope you're getting better padi. Your knowledge of toast soldiers and soft boiled eggery is needed around here.

Don't forget that he's cheating with the three sanded timer.

In such a big Forum, it's a very good thing to be able to focus on the well being of our individual members, and not only distinguished ones like Peter but others who are well known. Lots of credit to Mon and to the other members who spread the word about "the plot".

Well I do try but perhaps to some might sound a bit harsh, but I believe in giving the fact and no bullsh#te, if I have offended anyone then I apologise.

And thanks for your card that made me smile but prefer the nurse on front to the one inside.
