    Kyle...might I suggest that as a first step you learn to drive? You've got a family car, right? Why not use it to its max?? I grew up in a v.v.isolated area and my world opened up so much when I got my licence...OK so I was 17 but it really did give so much freedom subject to parental moods. Even now, when I am bored and lonely I just go out for a drive to nowhere in particular - it's very theraputic. You managed the trip to Florida, you can do anything you choose!!

    Sorry about the "chin up" advice. I've received it myself before and just wanted to punch the donor of the said advice in the face.:rotfl::rotfl:

    Kyle You have no idea how insulting to an Aussie to be called an yank. :mad: :D
    It's worse than being thought a Kiwi. :rolleyes:

    Actually the americans call it cantaloupe as well so I have no idea how you work that out. :rolleyes: We are unique. :p:D

    My tomato relish turned out lovely. :D

    You really sound like you've been put through the wringer. Doing voluntary work or a course sounds great. It will enrich your life so much. Gee looks like I'm talking to myself. Again. :D
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)
