I have had a lot of help from people on this forum, usually in the form of bits and small jobs. It is nice to be able to help people and hopefully the "Idiots guide" has helped a few people along the way. Thanks to Phil for making a major contribution to the guide.

I do get asked about some things by Pm now and again and sometimes I can help like that or sometimes by phone call, which i prefer as it is in real time and you can ask questions.

I've only done a couple of jobs for people in the years I've been on the bbs, partly due to it costing too much for someone to pay postage and then ordering bits, even if the job is done for free.
However, after a pm or phone call, quite a few people have taken on a job themselves and got it sorted.
Even now, it still makes me smile if I get a"thank you----Sorted" pm when someone has managed to sort out the repair.
