    That's what I love about you guys. Always thinking of each other and wanting to lend a hand 😉 or in this case a blade or two

    Whether you get shaved or not is not important, it is the fact you have put your hair on the line to raise money to which I admire you.

    If Bunnings are not coming to the party, I think the offer by Uncle Al is a good one, provided the hat is passed around.

    We may just go that route. Stuff bunnings and their incompetency. I had hoped to get more donatations there on the day but it would feel good to be shaved by you guys as you are the ones that have been my support these many months

    Yesterday I rang a head office in Perth and the first lady I spoke to had no idea what soever as to whether or not Bunnings were involved. Seems a massive breakdown in communication generally.

    So long and short .... its still long

    That is blessed hopeless especially for such a large company who portrays themselves as community minded.....pitiful!!

    If nobody can do it for you earlier, I can bring my clippers to Simplicity's place at the end of april for the saw sharpening weekend.

    Cheers

    's gone, we've put the Cowboy to bed, I've checked the shed and backyard, there's no-one left ...... too tired to post anything more than a single photo that says it all......

    The year of firsts, birthday, anniversary etc is always the hardest.

    The memories do fade a little just as there will be times when a word, song, food or sound will bring it all back into sharp focus. Remember the good times.

    How fast three year's goes by.

    I'm not on the forum near as much as I'd like. Hopefully I will get back to it in the coming year.

    As another anniversary draws close I've taken time to look over this thread. What a family I have here. The love, compassion, support and loyalty you have all shown ... I'm speechless with a lump in my throat and tear in my eye.

    My inbox is almost full as I have never deleted the messages from that time.

    You are a great lot.

    Thanks

    I know that when you read posts like this it can be painful. But remember the good times that you had.

    Look forward to seeing some of your work again once you manage to get into the workshop
