      I had to go new fangled the last time work was thin on the ground. The one I really wish I'd surfed is the BW wave, I had a chance and was too lazy, boring tedious repetitive stuff once you've got the hang of it, perfect !

        Thomas,

        with your 50 posts I can see why you might think I might have been offended.

        Please, get stuck in to the forum and you will see all is tongue in cheek

        all the best

        back to me tapes,

        Milan.

          When feeling a bit unmotivated, have a look at this. Keep contracting!

            Milan, your problem is that you lived a good third of your life (and I am being very optimistic ) pursuing an illusory dream which did not and will not bring you happiness. Now, I don't want to be too harsh but.....

            ....it's time to wake up..
            I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

              very good Franko, I knew you'd be straight in there when you saw this thread,

              let me give you something to think about...

              by taking a few days off, I have been able to enjoy the fruits of my tape changing

              and nice fruits they are too

              and I'd like to have more time enjoying these fruits but these fruits don't come without a price and that price is changing tapes

              I have to admit though, I would rather have these fruits and less time to enjoy them than be like yourself and have no fruit

              Milan.

                I find when I’m in the same frame of mind as you its good to use the old carrot and stick routine. Set up something nice for yourself: gadget you’ve wanted to buy, book ski hols, weekend away etc.

                Thant way you have something to focus on and the days seem to go by much faster.

                  thanks Tony,

                  I promise you I have loads to focus on, too much in fact.

                  There is nothing in my life to complain about and it is the tape changing which has enabled the realisation of everything, therefore I cannot complain about anything

                  just been doing too many hours and really enjoyed having a few days off

                  all the best,

                  Milan.

                    Milan,

                    During your midlife crisis, don't, whatever you do, go out and throw your money away on a Passat. You will not look cool, and it will do you no favours in the long term.

                    What? Eh? Oh.

                      A proper midlife crisis involves extremely sexy women half your age, viagra, a hair piece, a red sports car and new "trendy" clothes. Trust me.
