Good on you mate while I haven't asked for help yet I know it will come. But the info I have read has answered most of my questions before I even knew I needed the answer.

Goodonya Doug! Have never known you to post anything negative, you are an asset for the rest of us, you know.

Well spoken my friend .I could not have said it better. Having a moment are we .It does us good to say things sometimes as I believe it make us better people and also makes you feel good in yourself..You may have a strange sense of humour..The majority of people like that humour ,so Dougwe mate keep it up and enjoy...When I first met you I thought you were a strange one but after my wife and I spent time with you we definitely believe you to be strange.Don't change my friend ..We need your humour in our lives..

Great comments Dougwe and so true. We've all had to ask for help at times and boy do we get help. A great here on this forum.
I remember when you first started out and joined this forum Dougwe. You've come a long way since then.

I always say "I don't do facebook", but a few days ago, I realised this forum if MY version of facebook. I am a happy member smile , and grateful for any help I have been given. Have met a few GNs on our travels, and maintained a friendly relationship with those that I have met.

Onya, Dougwe for voicing your feelings.

Take Care with your family problems Doug, they are sure to sort themselves out. I'm obviously a newbie but you have made me feel more than welcome and I see you on a few newbie posts welcoming people which is really nice to feel so welcome. Take care mate. :) I myself have a sick sense of humor so fire away I won't get offended. Just be yourself and just ignore negative comments. They just reflect on the person that makes them not yourself. :)

Your sounding like you need a shoulder to cry on , nothing wrong with that

We all need friends

I often feel guilty as I don't post much but have asked for help quite a few times and always been given it. Family problems can weigh you down Dougie, had a few ourselves, hard to do but just try to keep a sense of humour, and you have a great one, Hope to meet up with you some day. take care.

Big Gorilla · Guru

Good to read your post Doug. I sincerely trust your worries will go away, they all do in time. Hoping to catch up with you at Green Lake in mid March...All the best..Ken.

BUGGA, and I thought you were leaving, oh well maybe next week. biggrin biggrin biggrin

negative comments, just ignore them ones mate

mongrel, I don't think Dougwe has a strange sense of humour, he is strange all over. biggrin

Dunmowin, I agree, don't do facebook biggrin

Girl Smurf, Welcome to GN

GaryKelly · Guru

Couldn't agree more, Doug. There's a wealth of experience and information available on the GN forum and lots of GNs willing to share it. I too am very grateful for all the advice I've received from a great mob of Aussie travellers.

Peterpan · Guru

Hi Doug Isn't it nice to know there are lots of friends just at the end of a mouse click. Glad you're not disappearing though. Cheers Alice

sarg · Guru

You were the first GN that I met Doug, and then the ones that I met after you, all agree with me that you are a strange, BUT special bloke mate.
I am privileged to count you as another of my friends, and like Wombat, I too thought you were leaving.....BUGGER, ohh well missed by that much!!
I hope all goes to plan up in Townsville and your daughter manages to get through it all without too many hiccups. With you to lean on, I'm sure she will be fine. Hoping to catch up with you soon mate, maybe at Greens. Cheers....Sarg.

rosa, all friendly stirring from my side, not to sure about him biggrin biggrin

Dougwe · Chief one feather

Depends if you are friendly wombat, I have met you mate, remember biggrin

Now, what's this 'Strange' bit confuse I can put up with and agree with 'Crazy' maybe BUT 'Strange' smile confuse

Maybe I should be crazy and WOMBAT be STRANGE.

Cofusious say, 'Dazzled Wombats can be strange in company of mongrel's if in Vic 41 times' smile

Rip and Rosie · Guru

You know, its everyone who make this forum a great community, because it only takes 1 or 2 to start to vent or bully, and the next thing members disappear and we never see them again.

Nomads come back because its welcoming, friendly, tolerant, kind and comical. There's a lot of give and take here.

It takes all sorts, but I'm happy I'm a member too, so thanks Doug.

Vic41 · Guru

Well said Doug, people like you make the forum what it is (not to mention doing a great job of keeping Wombat in line) and a great place to visit. smile

THANK YOU for your contributions and making it a happier place for all of us. smile

I have been having a few family issues up in Northern Queensland and there has always been a friendly ear to listen to me, they know who they are.

I hope those people have been listening to you Doug. I have not met you but you sound like you are happy being who you are, as we are all different, holding different values and never seeing things the same as anyone else. Thanks for the positive post smile

Hang in there Dougwe. We value your friendship too.
Dunmowin - I agree don't 'do' facebook but this has become my FB with lots of lovely people. It's a great forum and there's so much more on this forum to help than FB ever would.

Go Dougwe. Great guy. (The other half says Hi too.)
