    I want to say thanks to Curly who contacted me a few days ago and ask if I would like a Classic bike guide issue 189 January 2007. It has a fantastic write up on the T140 TSX Eight page write up. He posted it and I received it today. He refused any payment and paid every thing for me. How terrific is that. I am sort of taken away by his kind thoughts and help. I don't really get like this but I am lost for words and can only thank him for every thing. It doesn't ever happen to me where a brother helps me and takes all the cost himself. Thankyou Curly you have found a soft side of Joe McDonald and I am so very greatfull. I will enjoy this mag.
    Regards & God Bless
    Joe.

    Yes I rarely feel like this but I am at a loss. I spent all my life and barring my Mum people have always abused any kindness I have shown. Yes I am blown away.
    Regards
    Joe.

    Thanks mate, you're very welcome. But still not as good as those that send stuff to others for free and refusing to be reimbursed for postage.

    Its great and I am taken back. Yes you are right there are some no quite a few users on here that go beyond the call. You to are one and yes that's what makes this a very special forum. Got me thinking now we should start a topic to say thanks to the ones that help and stand out.
    Regards
    Joe.

    I have to say this forum is great. I have been here a few months now but only chip where I have any input worth sharing IMHO LOL.
    But it does appear to be a very happy upbeat place.
    Long may it stay this way :):)

    Yes I hope that aswel. There are so many special people here. And this time I don't mean the asylum. People here that want to help each other. Funny that people we never met or maybe never will and they care for us. And you know everyone's opinion counts and makes this place what it is. And it does not have to be motorcycle related.
    Regards
    Joe
