Errrr I think this should probably go in here. Hello!

So I have been a bit absent lately(for a year or so I reckon by now).



Hello again old friends and to all the new faces.
I've been busy trying to carve out a career and watching my broken truck get ever more not-fixed as it sits in a barn and I commute to work on my push-bike. Poor excuse I know for missing out on you lot but boy am I glad you are still here!
My goal for this year is to get the truck back on the road by September. Shouldn't be impossible but it is currently in a lot of pieces and I think I remember where most of them came from

Thanks to Woody for nudging me via a mutual acquaintance to come back ad say hi.

What have I missed?

Well there is always the much talked of body-swap option!

Married life is great. Hit the 2 year mark yesterday. Can't believe it went so quick! She hasn't tried to fix me yet either... Still lets me wear my shorts and flipflops everywhere!
