Forum 'member'

Paid up again and am a fair dinkum member. It's nice to really 'belong.

I hardly ever use other member benefits, but do sometimes.

$40 hurts a little bit. I just wonder if there isn't a heap of lurkers and non members who wouldn't be happy to join up as 'forum members' for say $10 or $20, but don't see the benefit of the full initial join up and on going.


Okay... I'm a bit stingy, tight, cheap and spendthrift.

However, I just lost a load of horse feed off the back of the effie! The plastic wrapping broke. Even though I had it well tied down, the pallet load wriggled free. Live and learn. Son has explained that you need to thread the rope through the pallet and tie the bags onto it as well as tying down.

Cost me around $120 in lost pellets spread across the road.

So here I sit .... a paid up member, grumpy at what today has cost. ... grumpy old man me!
