hiya guys a wee quick sorry and explanation to anyone who asked for info or a part lately and didnt get a reply. I had a wee heart attack just before Christmas so havent been around . The good news is there doesnt seem to be any long term damage ( but at 70 what the hell do they think of as long term ?? ) Maybe time to stop lugging about CRT's ! :57:

im glad you are ok, i had one in august coupled with a stroke, don't let them grind you down, glad you are back on air, take care!

well the wife's kinda hinting it might be time to hang up the spurs but what do you do then..??? Sit at home vegetate and wait on the grim reaper?... nah not for me I may well have to slow down a bit... just when I thought I was getting good at this tv lark too! :c017: ...lol

OMG ...
Glad you came through it unscathed Jim ..
I suffer with a condition called Transverse Myelitis ...
Very much like MS ..and have suffered quite badly over Christmas ..
The worst thing being the fact that it robs me of dexterity ....and the extreme fatigue that goes with the territory ..
I was glad of the rest between Christmas and New Year ...but spent the majority of it in bed ..
cest la vie ..
Not fair the way these things mess up the lives of us old'uns..but we have to keep going ..
I do hope you suffer no long term effects from your setback Jim ..
best wishes
Evan

I hear what you're saying dave and eventually all old horses have to go out to pasture!
I've been doing TVs since there was only one or two in a street and white goods since the old hoover single tubs with the power ringers!
I think its hard when you're self employed when to decide to give up your income stream. I've decided I'm stoppin doing the white goods and I'm pretty sure I'm going to close the workshop and just continue doing TV's in a limited way from home, That way I can pick and choose what I do without feeling obliged to go do the heavy stuff I have to admit I'm no longer fit for.

Incidentally forgot to mention thank you all for your kind remarks very much appreciated !

Hi, Jimca,
Was dribbling on a new entry while new Quuq entries became current biz - must be quick - suggest you, with your'e 'Wee' whatnots, were the true 'Cameron' and without our Janet.
All the best - Chris.

Must be summat to do with this (lack of) trade, but I also had heart attack when in mid 50s, 3 yrs back. Lifted 28" crt and did 2 aerial jobs before they carted me away..good health to you pair.

translate ??????????

LOL ! Glad its not just me I thought maybe Chris was having a wee cryptic senior moment ! thought it kinda impolite to ask what he meant when I assume he was wishing me well ! :67:

Hi Jim and Sparky,
Was only enthusing our 'Jimca' as a serious and sometime whimsical, north of the border 'Wee' Quuquer.
Dr. Cameron, likewise (as in Dr Findllays casebook, well, he was just such a guy) - Janet just cooked, but in a pithy manner.
You young folks weren't brought up with 60's soaps - I'm back to Dixon with his healthy Dock Greens - Chris
PS - Jimca - what's with this modern 'LOL' crap - you too probably had a proud post WW2 socialist education, but never too political myself, but.
PPS - Wish you well, Jimca - natch political ever, of course.
PPPS - Sparky - you need a translation - what into ?
-
I do remember the school tie being somewhat red !! And the grandweans text me so I've to try and work out what that particular version of english translates to hence the LOL !
I never even gave the esteemed Dr Cameron and the prim and proper Janet a thought ! I thought it was some obscure reference to our em great leader Mr David Cameron !
-
Hi Jimca, and well said.
To think our revered and modest 'Janet' could be seen as a reference to phart 'Cameron' with his private eddication and family millions escapes me.
Surely, as you now have a wild 'Salmon' now to enthuse - and he has never been known to say 'LOL' - in public, at least - he could be that guy - but doubt it - he still needs southern cash now the 'Scottish' North sea gas has all but run out -
Ever a sort'a greenish socialist, but never political - Chris
-
Very glad to hear your OK jim, you keep yourself well and take it easy!
Any update on the part I asked for - posted, not posted?
Refund proceeding with paypal at the moment, obviously want to know if it requires cancelling or not..
Again, glad your on the mend.
-
hi it was sent however it appears to have gone awol and unfortunately not recorded. I have approved the refund via paypal. If you still have the set I can send another FOC as a good will gesture let me know if you want it

Hey Jim,
:c017:
I know its been a while - but the part would be great - still have the TV in bits... Please be sure to include a return address too. If it doesnt work I will post it straight back - if it does I will be sure to send you some money via Pay Pal...
:c017:

Hi I vaguely remember it was a Vestel board but don't remember which one ...remind me and stick five quid in my pay pal for postage and its yours to keep and do with as you please ! :72:
