bj229r   thanks...it gives me encouragement.  MachFly.. I'll be emailing you shortly.  Sundowner... PM me with what your up to.  Been a long time since the SOB's.

Thanks everyone else for the good will and support.  

To new readers of this post here's my quoted reply from page 13.  Thanks everyone.  :salute

 Hey lads thanks for thinking of me.  As you can see I haunt the boards daily.  Keeping in touch with developments, friends and squaddies.  That new City looks great but it was a pity about Rodders.  It's things like the frailty of life that put things into perspective.  Glad he got a decent send off.

  I'm getting alot better now.  Spent most of September being very sleepy from drugs and couldn't sit up right for more than 10 min without feeling discomfort.  I only get the odd tweak now and then just as a reminder.  Should be fit for work by December but I'm already looking for work as of this week.  Applied for Print Operaters job only a mile away from my home...it's address is Spitfire close....omen perhaps  :rock  Also applied for a recovery drivers job.  Anything will do to get me back in the job market.  Have bills and debts of honour to clear.  Yer lads!  I'm feeling very positive for the future...back to normality without the pain, without burdening my wife and getting money matters resolved once I'm earning again.

  I bought a PC 11 years ago to help with my desire to write but I got distracted by flight sims and you know the rest  :D  So!.... I've been writing.  I posted one such true life story in a BBC competition.  Here's the link to the synopsis and short story.  Critic welcome...good an bad.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/mystory/stories/tragedy/150177/

I have an urge to persue my writing....as a dyslexic I have something to prove to myself.  If only to metaphorically stick the finger to my former teachers...who are probably dead by now.  

  As for AH I don't see me returning in the near future but then again I don't see me never returning.  Maybe later next year.  PC probelms, writing, quality time with me Mrs (she's been a real gem over the last 4 years) and just general everyday living.  They all need to be caught up with.  

Anyways lads ...thanks for thinking of me... it's very appreciated.   I'll be on the boards from time to time.

Regards   :salute
Lynx

That was down to my CH gear + the CH calibration software that's do much better than windows calibrator.  Makes for a much steadier stick  :salute

  Good Story Lynx well told. The ending left me wanting to know more. Good writing will do that and make one think.  :aok

Also been MIA from boards, didnt see this either till today.

Lynx, nothing but the best for you. Was always a pleasure to run in to you, "good guys" or bad...and always a worthy opponent when things went that way. Hope your body heals up faster than its supposed to for us not-quite-50 guys!


Know what you're saying about "not now but not never." I've been away for almost a year myself, and here I am checking the AH boards now and again. Never know when the urge might come back, and if it does for the both of us I'll look forward to seeing you again!

Ive been spending some time in Yaks Lynx. With the new PT boat out were seeing a lot more and the Yak-9T is custom built for busting them. Were keeping a 9U fueled for when you come back and Ive been politicking for the Yak-3.

Cause when you have Yaks you dont need nothing else. :salute
