It that a euphemism?

Chin up, mi amigo. The issues of States Rights and emancipation will be settled another day.
This is basically what I would have put (is Norman somehow inside me?)
Hope things get better soon Tim

Norm, in your simple homespun slightly disturbing fashion, you have hit the nail right on the head. I more gutted than the Professor of Gutted in the Gutted Chair of Gutted University to be missing an Ayton. It's usually the highlight of my hobby year. But given the way I feel, the drive up would be a nightmare if I had the means to do it, frankly the thought of not having to load the car tonight was a blessed relief. I am chuffed to bits you have managed to rescue the weekend and I hope you all have a cracking time, and that those in the Whiskey game especially enjoy yourselves. I look forward, albeit wistfully, to the pictures and reports. There will be another day, and this has inspired me to organise something in this neck of the woods once again. I am intensely pissed off that I managed to get all of my Ayton stuff done on schedule as well, there were lots of new toys to show off.........................................Hey ho.

Never mind, Tim - always next year (I might even try to get up there myself - there, that's cheered you up, hasn't it! :hair: ).

Hope all the problems resolve themselves. :thumbs:

It was really sad unpacking the ACW :( before I set off in a while.
Hopefully all will sort itself out and you'll be able to make the mooted 'Shinycon' :) this year?
