    Things happen to everyone Paul...(positive and negative) it is simply how one handles and accepts each situation imo. The grass is never greener on the other side... accept and embace what you have if it is positive or negative (that is all i am saying).

    As for this... Nature doesn't discriminate towards people mate, flooding twice in QLD in 2 years is really bad luck

    My thoughts go out to those who have lost everything again.

    It almost makes me want to say "screw it" here, put off all my jobs for another week and go up there and help.
    For what it is worth... That is the most positive thing i have read in quite a while Paul.

    Simmo.

    for gods sake stop picking on paul. the poor bastard has water come in through his roof in multiple places. he hasnt been able to get any help, he's at his wits end and doesnt need to see your comments picking holes in him. if he's been using this forum as a bit of venting relief over the last few days so be it.

    Not sure how you think that is picking on him?.... It is actually clarifying my point of view so he better understands where i am coming from (which i'm sure he understands)... Personally, i think Paul has handled the situation quite well. That is why i also put in brackets (that is all i am saying).

    Maybe you have mistaken the tone as it is through text (therfore, assuming that it's going to be picking on him before you have even read it?). I am only asuming this as you also implied that i will reply back to you in some clever way...

    If you think i have now replied back to you in a clever way.. that's fine, you're entitled to your opinion.

    Paul, just out of interest... what is your opinion of my reply? Do you take offence of the above comment that i previously posted?

    Simmo.

    Hey i like dark empty places too I've also been told i look my best in a total absence of light
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you

    Good on you Kathryn. Been thinking this for a while! Might remind some people that there are times when "being positive" is not possible and there are times when feeling like life took a run up to kick you fair and square in the you-know-what's is allowed. Sometimes all a person needs is to vent, picking on them for it doesn't help and just makes the person doing the picking look like an insensitive ass.

    unfortunately sometimes the person picking on the other person isn't even aware this is what they are doing and think they are trying to help, of cause more often than not they are just insensitive a:holes who don't care

    Speaking from experience there Ian

    Anyway, i won't reply to the others that have hopped onto the bandwagon... as you have all hurt my feelings. Maybe a case of tall poppie syndrome

    I asked Paul if he took offence to the post and still no reply... so one can only assume that he is A-OK as he is posting elsewhere. I'm also confused why he would reference me in multiple posts if he didn't want my feedback (which i gave him including my opinion that he has handled himself quite well given the circumstances).

    If people don't like or accept my honest and direct feedback, that's fine with me... continue the name calling - an insensitive ass or whatever makes you feel superior.

    Anyway, I shouldn't have to justify myself...

    this topic should be.... how's the weather.... lets get back on topic hey!

    Simmo.
