I work from home too - only enjoyment I get during the day is from pretending stuff. Today I'm pretending I'm really cool, successful in life and generally well liked. Yesterday I was a spaceman. Tomorrow's Saturday and no work, so back to my drab, real existence :(

I was going to suggest a nightlight that turned on the light when it got dark. Then I thought about it a bit......... Glad I didn't suggest that.

J@t asking Keith to fix the double post

Count yourself lucky - had a TP earlier

Ah yeah - was trying hard to make sense of the post - I failed - have HSV announced a GTR for 2020?

I think he means Nismo, not FoMoCo?

Oh wow - happy birthday mate Topping it off with post 9K too Any plans beyond subway or noodles?

Waking up thinking today was friday made me feel good. Realisation is for another threads post.

I think you can get a kit to add usb/bluetooth to the FG too?

You're meant to wait til he says "You can say that again" before coming in with the zinger

I got the only possible correct answer Zero dogs were hit in my scenarios

Got my first "pash" in 1983

Definitely. There's also a severe lack of followup upon release - with most of the responsibility to receive help placed on the very person who's unable to get it for themselves. They (or at least in my experience) are released - usually on a high dosage of whatever drugs stabilise them for their current requirements, with the understanding that they will be finetuning and exploring more correct medication once they return home and visit their family doc/psych etc. Someone that's pretty heavily sedated and in zombie mode isn't the right person to be trusting to take care of themselves, so they stick to what they were given and feel pretty doped up most of the time. Low and behold - if they forget/run out/skip a few days of their meds the haze wears off and they feel the best and the clearest they've felt in years (quite rightly so too). In the case I mention above - it was usually a week or two before telltale signs start appearing (to late to even ask "are you ok?" without getting the head bitten off) and another week or two before the ultimate crash and episode. Sad and scary thing is - by that stage there is absolutely nothing that can be done to help the patient if they can't see the issue or refuse to suggestions. Just need to weather the storm until the big enough crash happens where the authorities can become involved. One thing I have learned through all this and would heartily recommend to anyone in a similar boat - get a family violence order on the patient as soon as you can. It opens up so many more opportunities to be able to act quicker to get the help the person needs before the total spiral (I wouldn't have had to wait until blood was drawn for starters)

Point made Ford caps it is edit: strike that - the plastic Ford ones sit loose in the rim and rattle - FPV ones it is - let the haters hate

Ok - quick question for the more discerning person. Run the Ford center caps or the FPV ones one the rims? Am heavily leaning towards the Ford ones (FPV emblems on Fords look tacky AFAIC) What's everyone else do when they put FPV rims on their XR6T's?

Happy birthday mate - you're still a young sprog - still a bit of life left in you yet

Yep - puts my hand up. I think my step daughter is the one Fluff is talking about ^^ (wrote a bit about the incidents and follow ups in the donating members thread) Never even the slightest hint that she'd do anything to hurt herself, but when she goes off her meds the psychotic episodes start - paranoia, voices, seeing things etc. Has struck her mum and grandmother at different times. Latest episode was the worst yet, but, because she knows how to talk to the cops/medics once they visit the scene and has no indication of self harm they couldn't do anything but leave here at home with her 18month old bub. Had to get her to strike me and draw blood before the cops/medics had the power to remove her. She's now got a 12 month intervention from the bub (bub's in my care for the next 12 months at least), supervised care and all the support for her to take advantage of to get in control of her condition and future. If I was a betting man I'd give her a 50/50 chance of making good on the support that's on offer and being able to have a relationship with her bub - less chance of her being able to take care of her full time again. Zero drug use from the step daughter either - would be a lot easier to comprehend if we could blame something like ice or crack. Bloody gut wrenching decision to separate mother and daughter, but horrible news like hawlass's above takes away any doubt. There's zero rationality about someone when they're in one of these states off their med - she's seen her mother and grandmother as venom dripping monsters and struck out at them - imagine if/when she saw the same visions and voices concerning the bub.

Would we need to get a DNA sample to work out the parents? Fluffy Hamster making a mess of a Subway

Can see this one ending well

Uluru looks fantastic in the spring

Where does the immobiliser fit in in the line? Could you have bypassed a crucial leg of the journey? (I think mine does semi random system checks (doesn't check each part everytime?) - could it be something you changed earlier that is only now failing the check)? (^^ is probably BS, but is what I was told by someone somewhere)
