Hello chaps!!

Just popped in to say gday and yes I'm still around!

On a sad note, I lost my father after a long battle with cancer 3 months ago, he was 85.
Its been a tough slog since and now the focus is on my mum who is in early stages of dementia. Shes in good hands with lots of support.

Work is quite busy averaging 12hr days...all i want to do afterwards is eat n sleep.

Yes my love interest is just awesome, shes been with me the whole way, quite busy herself as a full time nurse.

Still no time for models which is frustrating guys, might have to sell a few, have a bit of a clean out so to speak, just let me know if your after anything in particular......Hey Luke would you like the MPC 68 Impala!!

With my dads passing, my daughter {who is 16 next year} scored my dads car in the Will and testament '93 Toyota Corolla Seca....only 100000km on the clock!!...not bad for a 25 year old car! the car is neat as a pin, dad looked after it, full service history etc, kept all receipts and dad even had a log book for it! his first entry when he took delivery was to fill it up at the local servo @ 67 cents a litre!!

Anyway, ill try and have a sticky at your wips and completed projects ok.

All the best guys
Regards
Ray.

Glad you popped in Ray thumbsup bit of a mixed bag with your news, family comes first and you have to do what ever it takes to help and heal from such illness and passings. On a brighter note good to hear about your partner and your daughter has a mint car so she’s got a great start to driving already. Take care buddy

Agreed Luke but I have wanted to enter stuff in SAPMA for years and this year it is not on Bathurst weekend!
Making a weekend of it, leaving the little dude with Grandma and Grandpa and spending the Saturday night in town with Mrs Jiminee.

Hey Ray, the guys have pretty much covered everything I would like to say too, you got my no. if you need anything.

Great to hear you have a partner.
The Seca is a very underrated little car, perfect for a first car.

Might go to SAPMA myself this year, am trying to be more outgoing and turn this growing agoraphobia around.
