I'm BACK !!! :)

Post by AlfaCorseChris »

Pretty sure nobody missed me anyway, or nobody knew I was gone, but I'm BACK !!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Been quiet for some time now, sorry guys, Shrew, Kev and the rest of you wonderful people.

Shrew, I will need some help on some wheels mate

Kev, I'll catch up on your threads mate, see what you've done with that 33

John, I'm pretty sure you havent touched that 33 yet and I'm confident that that new garage of yours now contains only your jetski :p


So starting tomorrow morning, I'll be back on track with you guys, seeking for technical assistance, asking for opinions and suggestions, and making stupid comments 8-)

Right...

I've been doing 3 jobs lately, and as things turn out, I'll keep doing so at least for the rest of the year if things dont get any better.

So I'm working at my day job till 16:30, then I do my afternoon job which is restorations/recommissioning cars/services/upgrades and tuning till about 21:00.

I go home, have a quick shower and sit with the family for a couple of hours till its bed time.

Then I write an article each night for an online newspaper till its my bedtime :/


Thing is, with several issues we have at my morning job and with our track day been set for the Saturday that passed, I was overwhelmed with work.
Especially the past 2 weeks were a complete nightmare.
Expenses have hit the roof, spending money is none, and one has to do whatever possible to support a household. I'm sure you all understand :)

Still got loads to do and a few cars to finish up, but the pressure is not as hard as it was till yesterday ;)

So, crying about over, I'll start catching up immediately ;)

John, you live in the wrong country mate :p

Hi Chris - tbh I hadn't noticed that you had been away, but there's no way we could miss your return :lol:

Hope the work situation eases off a bit for you, even if you enjoy it, holding down that many jobs can't be a good idea in the long run...

Yeah I know... missing out on family time :(

Its April and May I need to worry about the most. After that, things will HOPEFULLY ease off.
Unless the house tax this year is more than I can take again so that will mean working my tail out again till I can cover that.

Bloody troika... Europe is THE worst thing thats ever happened to us :x
