Lee, as much as I dislike these threads of yours, and your general desire to seek "attention" for your achievements, I do however admire your pure grit and determination to keep pushing the boundaries and turning your dreams into reality.
I know I could do what you have done if I put my heart to it, the ideas are there in my head, but my heart isn't in it.
Sometimes I dream big, but when I put life into context I often imagine what the last things I would think of when I'm lying on my deaf bed. It isn't material things, how nice my van was, how big my house was, how much money I had in the bank...
In a way iv already achieved my dreams and I'm happy just to keep living them until the day I day.
I could live under a hard rock and run around in a Fred Flintstone stone van for all I care, as long I have my family ( including dog ), we have our health and continue making happy memories until the very end. That's what I will remember.
Well done for making your own dreams come true, just please can we stop hearing about it. All the bum licking, especially from scrimble, is becoming cringeworthy.
There are plenty of other things to chat about on the forum. I'm sure there is a brush thread somewhere you could get involved in
