Don't worry, nobody's upset me, I'm not going off in a huff, and I certainly haven't the time to worry about any issues on the forum 

I have basically been running myself ragged - with full time job, and helping members with car trouble at weekends, alongside trying to fit in voluntary work - and I can't keep burning the candle at both ends.

It seems everyone's Miggy needs attention at the moment, must be TBs curse.

There are some changes afoot in my career path which mean very soon, I will not be in a position to do what I do, so frequently.

Said changes also mean I will no longer be in a complacent office job, whereby I can usually get away with sending a cheeky personal email etc to members, or take calls to discuss Omega stuff - but doing something that will require more of my dedication and concentration, and sometimes require more physical activity, so I will have to make better use of any "resting time" I get, than what I do at the moment.

I also need more time to spend with the family - which to be fair, I have not spent as much time with as I should.

To this end, I am not saying I'll never sort out an Omega again, but what I am saying is that it will be much more infrequent.

I won't be a stranger, will still log in and post when I can, but will no longer be actively doing car repairs.

I know it's with the best of intentions, but I would ask if possible, that members do not recommend me to others anymore, for doing routine work.

Thanks for your understanding

No need to leave or whatever, just give up the weekend tinkering - problem solved.

I'm not going anywhere mate - that's exactly what my post said - I will be doing less tinkering, and just not around quite so much

I too am aware of James' change in career, and I wish you the best of luck...although I need not realy as I know it'll all be fine.
We all respect your decision James, and I'm sure you'll still be on here when you can.
I know from personal experience James is skilled, competent and quick when it comes to vehicle maintenance and work.
But above all that he is a thoroughly nice guy, who is a great mate.
He always puts himself out for others, and thinks nothing of it. James truly is one of those special few people, but I must say OOF does have a great community.
As most will know, my MV6 has decided to seize up potentially, and James as always has given me excellent advice. I've had numerous PM's from regular members who I talk to a fair bit, but also from members I don't know that well offering support and help.
James, you are a star...and you know where I am, you are always welcome to pop by anytime. Sometime you'll have to come down and I'll hide the Omega's...so you can just rest and we can have lunch in the pub.

About time we consider another Oxford meet then, Mr Wyatt.  Pick a warmer day though

[JamesV6CDX]

The offer of having a look at your MV6 still stands Josh....

Oxford meet sounds good too

That sounds like a very good plan to me, and that was certainly a cold day. But at least we can burn both my MV6 and your gold Elite and huddle around for warmth if it's another cold day 
I think I'll start a thread in the meetings area then.

I'd very much like to take you up on that offer James 
And if we can get an Oxford meet sorted, then we could tie in it so you don't have to travel here before.
How is the 406 now? Most issues resolved?
