Why does so many find something gay or twisted in anything?
Why does the perverted interpretation come so easily to some?

Ok. Swop love with respect. That work?

I wish you wouldn't leave us permanently Tatty, but if life calls, what can we do? I'm really sad to see you go. I really do hope you still stop in from time to time. I'd rather have you here in minimal doses, than not at all. You are one of the best members here. :respect:

Good luck Tatty. Whatever life brings your way, I wish you the best of luck. And remember, your e-family will be here with open arms should you have a change of heart. :toast: :(

Catch ya later Tatty. If there was ever someone whom I would always read their posts, it was you.

When I was younger, I really wanted to be involved with computers but the tides of time took me away for many years. When I reached 40, I started to get back into the fun stuff but struggled with understanding all the new technology and wondered if my opportunity had passed. Then one day Google pointed me this old pom mixing it up with the young uns and I followed and watched (lurked), eventually being convinced that maybe I could do this.

Ultimately, I joined TPU and purchased the necessary parts to build my first rig. Wow that wasnt even that long ago (2 years I think) but I've come a long way since. It was you that I first found, and you that inspired me Tatty and it kind of saddens me that the only thing I can offer in return is this heartfelt thanks.

Best of luck, and keep those slippers warm.:toast:
