I’m my defence it was sunny at lunchtime so a quick wash and off I went … had a great blast up to Grantown , fuelled up and then went up the back roads to Loch Garten then up Cairngorm . A tad “fresh” with a dust of snow on the tops, had a cuppa and a wee wander then thought about home for supper. Now Gary’s brain hadn’t computed ( or cared ) about the early onset of darkness!!! so it was home by candlelight lol, in fairness the led lights are spot on and the cool air let Tommy breathe easily and well 😁

It’s a very clever camera! It’s nice to know if anything does happen I will have it recorded. Long videos are not where it’s best suited. It’s the little snippets it catches that make it so good. I think someone needs new tyres as I didn’t see anyone else struggling to keep grip.

Wasn't sure where this should go... Stuff? Yeah I guess so. Nonsense? Not a bit of it! Anyway, perhaps I'm a day late with this as Mental Health Awareness week was last week, but here goes I've recently (almost) finished building my car, and all along the way this has had me dancing along a psychological tightrope. Due to various factors I have a tendency to strive for perfection, and this can get me into a lot of self-inflicted trouble (and has done in the past!). In a recent post I decided to 'come out' and share a bit of my story, in the hope that it would help others to be more open about any sort of mental struggles they have had, or are currently dealing with: https://forum.wscc.co.uk/forum/topic/130867-the-lobster-88-se-rebuild/page/41/?tab=comments#comment-1422129 This can be anything from suicidal thoughts, right through to relatively-harmless-but-totally-draining overthinking (something I still do too much - mentally composing email replies at 3am while I'm lying awake, or practicing phone calls in advance!). If this describes you then you're not alone - even within this club - and I have always found the support that comes from all angles when I 'break cover' to be overwhelming, completely the opposite to my original fear of being seen as 'crazy', or being ridiculed, or even excluded. In fact it kinda makes you feel like you're in some sort of exclusive club when people pop up (both 'publicly' and privately) offering similar stories or support and understanding. It's extremely heartwarming. So, I guess the over-riding message is that it is perfectly normal to feel like cr@p sometimes, and that it's absolutely OK when that happens. There is support available all around if you allow it to come into your life. I will personally offer myself as one of these support mechanisms if I'm able to at the time, I'm only a PM away Feel free to share any stories here, you won't be judged and as I said, we'll be part of a (relatively) exclusive club, haha. And don't forget that whatever happens, there's always a fun and engaging toy with a shouty engine sat in / on your garage / shed / drive to allow you to clear your head at the end of a bad day Take care everyone, x

Hi Anthony, Ive reissued your renewal invoice, it had expired some years ago, I suspect this was why you couldn't renew your membership, you will find the renewal invoice in your email.... Cheers Mark
