Hey Bill,

Welcome back. I'm really glad to check the forum and see a post from you. Hope to see more.

Are you planning to build an RC model for yourself to sail? I'd love to see that some day.

Thanks to all for the replies! :wave_1: If I would've been cast aside, like an old rug, it would have been my own fualt. But you folks out there continue to come through with kind words and support. That really means alot to me. More than you know. Losing someone close is a beach. Picking up the pieces afterwords is harder. It really screws up your modeling! See, I'm getting better. Time to let go and continue on. Perhaps I need a new woman. But then, nothing would get done. I even thought of the dreaded MODEL RAILROAD! My good friend James slapped me and said to get busy on the ships! Forget the trains. I have. Just a thought. It's real nice to have friends here, even though we have never met. I feel like I know alot of you. Funny how the written word can effect someone. I need a bigger shop and two more hands!! And a bigger fridge!! :big_grin: I know Horiban is out there.....I'm comin' to get ya'!!! :heh: Just kidding. We should have a MW get together somewhere, would that be cool or what! I can see it now! Food for thought. Thanks again to all of you for making a part of my life better. I continue on.................
Best Wishes to all, Bill Waldorf... :thumbs_up_1:

Bill, glad to see you in high spirits again! Isn't the deadline for the Indy coming up soon?

As for the MW get together, Jimbo had 1 or 2 over in bloody old England.... But i've always thought us yanks needed to show them brits how real men party! (Pinatas and a rousing game of Chutes and Ladders)

Hi Bill, I did not post because I had PM you a few days earlier on that other site, :heh: :heh: I waited and watched you posting up the new thread it took you over 45 mins other wise I would have been first to say hello, but in the U/K it was 12.45 am and time for me to be in bed. ARH
