Title: Angus is back
Post by: Angus on September 21, 2010, 06:38:03 AM: My dear old forum friends.
I have been gone for a while, so I guess I owe you an explanation.
It has simply been busy, as well as I have had some wrestle with an illness.
The busy part means too many jobs. Not bad news basically, since the newest has been an aviation related PR job, - sort of ground controlling as well as a flying guide.
A typical tour would be like this (very nice video, and I have had my hands on that bird)

(I have been there 15 times now :D)
Apart from that, guesthouse host, camping warden, farmer and with a spice of carpentry and...so on.
My illness is here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflux_oesophagitis
The general problem is nausea and reduced appertite as well as fits of throwing up etc. Leaves one quite depleted, - my longest run of not being able to eat is 5 days or so.
Anyway, rest asure, I am back, slowly recovering (medication and lifestyle), the winter approaches with a new season, - the off-season that is, - and, for reflux there is nothing better than sitting upright after dinner, - even with a joystick ;)
Back on the forum, and subscribing soon. I might fly on Gyro's name soon just to brush off the rust, then subscribe personally. Will be looking for a squadron, - preferably a European based one due to the time zones. The UK has the same time in winter as we do.
Eager to start shooting again :devil

Post by: Angus on September 21, 2010, 03:13:32 PM: I was flying under the rather "109'ish" name of "Daimler" for a while, - but I have heard there is another "Angus".
But on the BB, I have always had the same name.
I did not fly for several months now. However I plan to buy a subscription and get on to the business as soon as I have my joystick, my plug (advice needed on serial-to-usb for a Precision-Pro conversion), and ... some time.
What name I find for the handle remains.....maybe "BigBull" :D
