Default Time for me to get all sentimental

Well i've been on these forums for 4 months and I have had a ball and met some great people, and would like to say a few public thankyous. Sorry to those of you who think im a suck or blabbing on... to you, you can bugger off for a minute In no particular order...

XA Coupe - well, first impressions last, it was great to meet you at heathcote, and just proved to me your a top bloke

Mrs XA Coupe.... what can i say, another Ford chick!! I never thought a timing booth could be so bearable... lol

Casper - another top bloke with a great sense of humour

Laminge - your good value, what would i do without ya I still want your car....

xagt_coupe - your advice has been a life saver

brenx - ditto

CH7472 - ditto again

outback_ute - it was great to meet you and have a chat, hope to do so again soon...

back2thefutura - i haven't met ya yet but your a very game man taking on an event as big as the wagga day... good on ya

TheMaddestman - another huge support and your encouragement has been fantastic

rodderz - well i asked for one thing, it was a small part but you did it for me, cheers mate. (saved me getting dragged through the mud even more)

To all the mods and admin, you do a fantastic job of keeping us all in check and the fact that you can still have fun while clamping down on bad behaviour (well what else would you call it). You guys show true character, well done

Last but by know means least KEV EB XR8 - the premier stirrer, you have cheered me up on some of my worst days with your stirring all in the name of fun.

You have all made a difference and driven (excuse the pun) me to continue with my passion for cars and especially Fords. So a huge THANKYOU and big hugs from me

Sorry to go on but i've had such a great day and have been thinkin how much we take some people for granted. Its nice to acknowledge the people around us


PS. A HUGE THANKYOU to all those that have given advice and support for my cars. Your encouragement has meant alot, and i have learned so much from all of your knowledge

Good on ya Melz, it's true too many times we take other people for granted and it also takes a special person to recognise it too.Well done. : :
