Morning. It has been a long time since I posted on here as I have been experiencing some life changing times. I won't bore everyone with all the boring details but I would just like to say a HUGE Thank You to many of you on here that have proved yourselves over and over again as being true friends. Both Kenny and I are overwhelmed at the kindness, love and generosity you have shown us and it is appreciated.

I now look forward to taking part on this fantastic site and getting to chat to all my old pals. Thanks again, you are amazing!

Keep posting, your input is part of the fabric of the site, people come and go and make thier mark but its nice to have somewhere to air your views and ask for advice, we both think of you two a lot, sounds silly but it keeps us focused on what we have.......hope 2011 pans out better for you both.....keep posting.......

[jameslindsay]

Thanks everyone for the kind words and welcome. Life for that past few months has been hard and with thanks to the recession my business has gone down the tubes. Now as my home is part of the business I am left with one huge nightmare. However, I am refusing to get depressed despite all the crap that is going on around me. The biggest nightmare is having to re home my animals and those of you who know me know that these animals are my life! Now I have said it, you all now know.

hello James ,
  I did wonder if that was what has happened , but I didn't want to pry or ask questions that were maybe too personal .
I am so sorry for you mate that this has happened , I know how much effort you put into it all , and that the animals were and are, very much a part of your life .. part of who you are !!!
 I really hope that you can get your animals sorted into new homes somehow , and that you and Kenny can get through all of this and find somewhere else to start again , whatever that may be .
 I know you will do the best for your animals , as you always have before . Life can be a bastard at times mate , but the bad times do pass , and I hope yours do soon .
I have had to start from scratch a few times in my life , and it is hard ... very hard . But it can be done , and you do get through it all and become stronger .
 I wish you all the luck in the world mate , it is time you had some of the good type  !!!!

cheers

Russ

James,
I am so sorry to hear your news. Life can be a real bitch at times and no matter how much hard work and effort you put into things, the wheels do fall off occasionally. As Russ says, you will bounce back stronger and I have to agree with him on that point. Keep the chin up and don't let problems (as bad as they may seem at the time) spoil your enjoyment of life.
Gordon.
