100% this. Takes guts to say something like that. Admirably so. I too apologise and probably going to take a similar break shortly so I raise my ‘Ditto’ in your honour and will see you down the track as you say :kiss:
I’m loving this! Especially like the point about the herd. I’m a bit anti-herd, stand my ground, scrap it out when others are running. Trouble is I get trampled in the stampede! It’s a bit like dazzer6666 ‘pick your battles’ advice, sometimes just walk away because you might be right but you’re...
