A quick hello to my mates
 

Just thought I would drop in and give you guys a update about my boat. The engine is not going and still in parts some have surface rust on them.I am still having a bad run my wife walked out on me 3 years ago and 10 months later my heart started to give up on me at this stage it is under control with meds .It hs affected how much I can do and the last 12 months my back has given up I am in the process of finding out if surgery will help again so I guess the boat will have to wait another year,but if I dont improve I wont be fit enough to use the boat on my own......Hope all you guys are doing well

Welcome back Aussie. Sorry to hear about all the problems, but like you said, if you don't take care of you first, getting the boat fixed means nothing. Take care of yourself!!

Sorry to hear about the problems, but if it's any help, you're not alone. My back has given up on me as well, but the drs tell me theres nothing I can do, it's just how it has healed from all of my car wrecks, and I'm stuck with it. I've also had several failed surgeries that have made things worse, in need of some more, and pretty well given up on using my boat as well. As to relationship's, mine isn't that bad, but it's been rocky. Women say they're with you forever, but once things turn bad, things alway's happen. I hope for the best for you and maybe things will turn around.

well I on the other hand have had pretty good luck so far with my back surgery. Had a laminectomy(?) for stenosis. Feeling pretty good today, had surgery February 14th, went back to work one month later.
Good to see you back Aussie

Thats what happen to me my wife never had to work while I could but when I couldnt bring any money in because of my health She had to start working and then everything became hers. She would let my sons do what they want and when I pulled them up she would side with them..Glad its all over but I dont think I can trust another women

well Aussie, I guess if it weren't for bad luck, you'd have no luck at all. here's to things looking up for you.

Welcome back Bro. You've been missed. Sorry about your back problems. Glad that your heart problems are under control. Growing older sucks. LOL
Good to hear from you.!! Cheers mate :beer:

I know the feeling.
