Good to hear from you mate and glad things are on the up (sort of anyway). Bad news about Zsa Zsa and Astro but it looks like they got through it OK.

Do you still have a mobile? I changed jobs and fcuked up all my old contacts. If you do PM me your number, I'll shoot my new one through as well.

As always mate if you need anything just yell.

Supers..hmm. Might have to hold you to that, even if I have to come and get you. :D

Already filed. Did my due diligence, got legal advice and it does wipe tax debt. Thanks for looking out for me though, appreciate it. :) I wasn't left with any choice. :(

I've had my knee down being a pillion on an FZR1000 going up Licola rd in about 1994. Sounds embellished, but it happened.... :)
But Gos, if I am well enough to jump on as a pillion, I'd be well enough to do Hotham one handed again........ ;)

There's a few blokes who have offered the loan of a bike as soon as I am fit enough. So trust me, once I'm well, ill be back out there.


And a quick thanks to my mate Dan for typing these posts. Otherwise....they would be unreadable...... I'm still on the La La pills........:cool:

Thanks Cath. Had me worried she did, I thought I'd lost her. Fucking kangaroo really did a number on her. The entry wound was 4 inches long and 3 inches wide but ut was 12 inches under the skin. Went from her chest to her gut. Luckily it didn't pierce the gut lining. So lots of stitches a drain and a few weeks light duties. Had the stitches out on Wednesday. She was a brave girl all throughout and just allowed me and the vet to do what was needed. Vet was great and allowed me in while we did the surgery.

Needless to say, rogue male kangaroos will be shot on sight henceforth. Under a primary producer cull permit of course. I had one have a go at me while out walking recently so they are aggressive at the moment.

Hi Marty, it's been ages!.

I do ask about you. Just read the the whole thread. Life certainly has a way of putting things in perspective. I have no doubt your whole "adventure" has made you an even stronger spirit.. even with the biggest challenges its amazing how much fight we have when backed into a corner. Getting back to basics is a shock to the system, but I don't think is a negative thing, actually more people would benefit from it these days IMO.

The bank /Tax stuff will be a load off your mind now and help clean the slate for your next chapter.

I have no doubt you will achieve your goals. I hope to catch you at the suppers, be so great to catch ip with you again!
Snuggles for the furries from me xx

PS great to hear both Astro+Zsa Zsa are on the mend, my basil got attacked my a miniature horse! All Bas wanted to fo was play with the big ball in its paddock, poor girl didnt see it coming. Rocky wasnt there to look out for her. Shes a flight dog generally, but just curled up on the ground. I was beside myself when I found out. Seriously thinking of moving them in with me.even if It means I have to move again.

Cheers Poss
It all comes down to how you ride it.....
