Heartfelt thanks to everyone

Hi everybody.
Haven't done much on here of late...too busy to write but I've been reading and absorbing and learning and putting into practice all the hints and comments you've all been making to each other. I finally went BR last week , OR interview to come, and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone from the regulars to the one-offs for the practical and moral support given to each other.
Sometimes we all think we're alone with our problems but when you find a forum like this, you realise there's strength in numbers.
All along I basically knew what I was doing but everyone needs a helping hand now and then and although, like everyone else, I had last minute jitters it went brilliantly in the end....like I knew it would thanks to the advice on these pages.

As I came out of the court I had two emotions.....
First I remembered Chuck Connors walking out of the fort alone at the start of the 60's series "Branded", epaulettes and buttons torn from his uniform, sword broken in two, to walk alone and regain his pride.
Then I thought of the old lag being released from prison and after saying "what do I do now?" gets told "whatever you want" and then replies "but this is all I know".

Now I can't get 24701 out of my head!

    Hello Heycock, well done you......I too read from here and went BR before posting!
    I'm so pleased it went well for you. I know it's so nice to talk to people who know all the emotions your going through and it is so reassuring. So right that line "whatever you want'......very true. 2ezocwl.jpg
    Let us know how the OR interview goes.
    Best wishes
