How damaged is too damaged?

Oddjob:
He’s still around, just had 2 WhatsApp messages from him this morning. Weeks will pass with nothing then loads at once. Supposed to be meeting up this month sometime if he comes North.

Laverda Dave:
Good to hear Roo is doing well loved up (with the lady friend and obviously his VFR).
We tried to meet up at the Calne bike show a few years ago, we were both there but the phone signal was appalling and when one of sent a message where to met up the other one wouldn't get it!).
I know he struggled to get internet where he was following his split with the long haired general as he used to call her. He brought me back a tool box from the US for the TL125s I restored for a mate.
If you do see him Ken ask him to post on here👍
Lovely polishing by the way, absolute craftsmanship. My advice would be to build your workshop first though before taking on other peoples polishing as once you do they'll be no time to build it!

Oddjob:
Spoke to him this morning Dave. He’s fishing and using a mate WiFi device to gain access. Said he was going to buy one himself.

Oddly we spoke about building the workshop and he’s in the process of building one himself at his new ladies house. I won’t be doing anyone else’s polishing at all. Not selling any parts, not offering any advice until we start getting some protection from  idiots who think they can say what they like when they like. I was considering selling some of my huge stockpiles of parts, I have hundreds of shell bearings for instance and lots of rare nos parts. That’s not happening now. Can you tell I’m unhappy?

Laverda Dave:
I can tell you are unhappy Ken.
I didn't read all the thread I think you are referring to, well I read the first couple of responses but as I don't have a 500/550 it wasn't really relevant to me so I didn't read a lot of the replies and I was on blackout for a while as up in Scotland attending a very good friends funnel so wasn't really in the mood for forums etc.
Anyway my advice would be to let whatever has happened wash over, it just isn't worth it and you have bigger battles such getting back to full health and planning the workshop.
When Roo gets his router hopefully we'll see him back posting and really annoying you🙂.
All the best.
Dave

Oddjob:
Ta Dave, that means a lot.

They say a near death experience changes you and that’s certainly true. I makes you realise that life is precious and we are obligated to pass on as much of what we’ve learned before we go. I’ve tried to do that. Now it’s time to say enough is enough. Life is far too short to be constantly battling with those that refuse to listen. If they ain’t going to listen then I ain’t gonna talk.

Lock this thread, I am done with it.
