Default Members update

G'Day fellow RFOC members.

Its been a while since I have been on here so I hope everyone is well.

I thought this could be a good thread to start up to let members know what were up too, even if we cant make events. I was inspired to do this after recent events in my life.

I have been looking at buying a home the past few months, and Thursday night at around 9pm an offer was accepted and became a reality.

It is still a month or so off before I move in, but I cant wait!!

So I wont be able to come to as many cruises as I have been, but I hope everyone will be able to understand..

I will be able to still come to a lot of things though

So with that said, whats new in everyone else's life!?

Cheers,
Matt

So hang on, you've bought a house?! Don't muck around do you. Welcome to a world of wanting to do oh so much to your car but looking at your fridge and going "crap those bills are piling up". Very worth it though.

No real updates from me other than I have enrolled in Cert IV in Training and Assessment with a view of changing careers within the next 6 months. Also contained in that view is lowering the ute, new exhaust, new wheels etc etc etc............. :togo:

Yeah and just think, that diff etc etc you've put in could just about pay for a full kitchen or bathroom renovation in the new digs! Whereabouts have you bought?

Yes, all the great zoos of the world were started when their owners got drunk and read the classifieds in the weekend paper.

Give us a yell if you need a hand doing the install mate. You can then help me put my speakers in!

Well if you see a coil spring fly past your place, chances are the spring compressors failed. (Just a heads up)

BBQ's are good, but a little hard when it's dark outside.

Sure can, talk to me thru the week about it. Spiders Im assuming? Have you had it inspected?

Can get you as many kittens as you want Dan, they may be a bit feral though.

Jen - you sold WHAT? Most people just have dogs.

Luke - Clarion 6.5" into the front doors. Might take you up on the offer depending on what Sunday's weather is like.

Yeah pest inspection was great. Basically some mold on some lattice work.

I just wanted to have it all A-OK before I move in.
