Sometimes I feel very, very, very humble
« on: 11 September 2011, 19:03:30 »
I do, of course, refer to (in no order), JoshWyatt, Lazydocker (ex-member ::)), chrisgixer, tunnie, Mrs Cakey and non-member Mrs chrisgixer.

When a well laid plan all went to pot yesterday, these people scramble into action, phoning around, driving here, there and everywhere to pick bits up, and in one case having to fly, to save the day.  One of those said members had also been unwell the night before, yet stayed all day grafting - a fact I didn't find out until later.

Laying in bed last night, especially after hearing the full saga of events from Mrs TB (again, unaware of some of it) I may have even had an emotional moment about it all.  Or maybe that was because my foot is in agony.


I am truely humbled, and feel blessed to have such friends.  I hope I can begin to repay some of the favours at some point soon. When my foot doesn't hurt.


THANK YOU.

Lazydocker was only a licking, so you'll make him a member again  ::) ;D

But well done to everyone involved for sorting the problem out, whatever it was  :y

I'm intrigued as to the story behind all this especially what you've kicked to hurt your foot?

Well done all! :y

That's the spirit of OOF that another forum member and I were discussing today over a cambelt.  Well done to all involved.

The sore foot suggests a car related problem, do tell  ;)

The OOF site is a community, full of great characters, who spend their time helping other OOF members, I appreciate this and this is one of the major reasons I really enjoy making posts on the website.

Good on you all those that were able to help TheBoy, you are all a great credit to society and to humanity as a whole, well done.  :y :y :y

Long may the spirit of the OOF website continue and let it be an inspiration to society as a whole.  :y :y :y
