Anyone heard from Grumpy Badger
What with the other posts here about missing members, anyone heard from Grumpy? He's not posted this year.
I hope he hasn't been caught up in this badger cull we've had in the UK. Seriously hope he's ok, and he's missed round here. |

He probably discovered there was a real life out there?

I asked him a few weeks ago and he replied with this: Hi mate. Thanks for your concern. Everything's fine this end, just needed a break and to get back to the real world.
Hope it's all good with you! |

Glad to know he's doing fine.
Mark, my friend, I hope you'll come back soon.

I too PM'd Mark several months ago, all is well with him, he's taking a break for a while. I would love to see him and Lavaman back on the boards. I've also spoken to Lavaman and he too is taking a break, not sure if that one is permanent though.

I too e-mailed him a few months ago and got a similar response. This is also Mark's busy time on the ranch so I'm sure his business has him spending 14 hour days with his horses.

He got a Ford Ranger and after that no one have heard from him, what that means.

Can appreciate where he's coming from. Too many "Is it safe to wear my rolex ......" posts or posts that start with good intentions & then go nasty Never a good sign when the regulars start taking breaks ............ |

Sometimes a short break makes the heart grow fonder...
I predict his return may begin with an "Incoming"
