I know I have said it before but I want to say it again.
As you know I have a few issues, see my signature.
I rarely go out, and almost never mix with people, I am on the internet about 1.5 hours a day, and three forums, this and a cycling forum.
You may not understand but I have always been made feel welcome here, even though I KNOW there have been occasions when I have said the wrong thing unintentionally.
Thank you ALL and especially the moderators for bearing with me and not judging me and VERY often answering questions that I know have been asked many times before but not saying so
People who make people like me feel good are truly wonderful
Hey Jeremy...is that 1.5 hours a day or 15 hours a day...these days I am on the net all day☺ learning new stuff mostly but I spend a fair bit of time here because it is just such a great place and the people are really great...yes I am on the net all day except when I am doing stuff but I may have music going in the background...I just use youtube for my music...and when I lay down to sleep I choose a rain on an iron roof video..I love hearing rain on an iron roof...so I let that run all night... Its funny for me as to people. ...I like to keep to myself but find no problem making friends or meeting new people...I usually chat to anyone who is nearby when out and about...I used to love going to pubs and giving folk cheer up sessions...they used to call me "father confessor"☺ and I would have all these folk happy to see me at the various pubs I would call into. I am a good listener which is the key to having folk like you.Have always done ok with ladies as I treat them ok and as one lady said to me.." I like you Alex as your are the only bloke here that talks to me not my txts" she was attractive and well built so I guess men yreated her as an object..they dont seem to like that.
And I am sure you dont upset anyone here...certainly not me..there will always be folk one will upset as you cant please everyone nor should you care...I think you will find most Australians are easy going and tolerant..well maybe not but thats what I would like to think.
The moderators on this site are the best in the business as they never throw their weight around and treat members as having the sense to self regulate..they rarely need to step in as we manage ourselves reasonably responsibly and I think members respect each other and perhaps if they dont like a particular member they simply avoid them...I know I rub a few folk up the wrong way and suspect they hold opinions about me that are totally justified and yet they rarely tell me that I am a verbose opiniated mug. .probably cause I could only agree..as no doubt they would be correct in arriving at that assessment...
It is wonderful to have you contributing here and giving us insites as to how things go in your world.
And I think its wonderful that you are so open and honest with us ...you are ok mate.
So when are you going to come out for a holiday? Australia is a great place and in truth there are not many dangerous animals ..we just put that rumour out the to keep the tourist numbers down..but you will be welcome if you can make it...
Thank you for your wonderful post.
Alex
