Re: not coping

I hope it settles down after your treatment @outlander you deserve to have a break from it.

i hope so to @Snowie only a couple of weeks away now. just need to keep working and having the funds there. thats the most thing im worried about. hopefully with the extra work im doing itll be enough.
