I'm glad to be back - I think I let OD get me down - even though I didn't join in with the political threads. I've decided to "put that part of the forum on ignore" and just use the forum for what I think is more important - all things automotive...


...I will try to stick to the Mercedes theme as much as possible (!)



It is funny coming back to this forum it must be a little bit like cheating on your girlfriend / partner - you flounce off with a few different manufacturers only to find you really preferred how your first love was put together.


It is also good seeing that most of the good people are still here (as well as the OD warriors who don't join in with the technical side). In this age of insta-crap and arse-book many forums have been suffering from the exodus to these silly platforms. This forum too isn't as busy as it was but (kinda like I said) there's a strong element of keen enthusiasts here. That's a good thing that needs to be supported.


Thanks for reminding me about your thread: I've just caught up. I didn't realise you have a helper =>




That's almost cheating!
