Cheer up Allan, It's always a little depressing when your hose isn't long enough.

My mate Ken wife works not far from Frontline hobbies in Newcastle and I said if she could pick me up some glue, I asked for Revell Contacta liquid special in the small bottle, they told her that they don't have it anymore as Revell stopped making it :shock:
Don't know if they are stopping all there glue range. The local model shop has stopped bringing in Model Master glue.

sigh.... i'll try and abbreviate this so it's not a 10000 word essay.

I own bodgybros.com, have since 04, the server has been terrible for the past year or more... I got my mum onto the same host years ago, hers has been bad too. so i decided to move that over to the new host i have with kustomvinyls.com as it seems to be very reliable and trouble free.... and that's when the problems began!
the old host (hostinginsiders) would not reply to my emails and form submissions to get the domain password, have it unlocked and set to private so i could move it. asked my new host to help. they gave me the info i needed to chase up and who to lodge a complaint with.
I lodged a complaint and of course, they wanted to see the response from the old host.... ummm hello!! how can i show you their response when they DON'T respond?!?
So finally, i went over their head to the original registrar who wanted proof of my identify, yep that's fair enough.... buuuuuut... whenever i tried to email them an attachment of my ID, it would bounce back. i could only send them text emails. so after 10 days.... I finally have all my sites together.... and then there is the next problem. my emails didn't come over because that is a seperate MX service. so i contact my new host to get that all set up and my old domain directed to my new hosting... and she directs kustomvinyls to bodgybros so if anyone went to kustomvinyls.com, they got redirected to bodgybros.com. i was livid!!
Ended up telling the woman i don't have time for her and hung up.
I then got online and did it all myself... I have it all sorted, both sites up and running the way they were. so much hassle for something that should be simple.
.. and end rant.... phew

on the positives.
Got a lot done lately, check the new posts to see my latest on the DK cars

Hey guys. Still around. Been fairly crap here. Been alone save for a couple of days for the last 4 or so months, trying to pack and clean this sty :lol: Had to stop going in to the op-shop to do so, which is mega-lame. Still no help from my able-bodied siblings. This past weekend my mum came down and got some furniture and the washer, dryer and fridge, so I'm living out of an esky for now :roll: I've got 10ish days to get the rest of this place stitched up and gussy. I don't see that happening at all. Good news is I'm losing weight from living off of baked beans, tuna and weetbix :lol:
