New Years resolution thread
Well its that time again!! What new years resolutions are you planning? I havent thought of any yet. I am sure some will be imposed on me like;
1/ loose some weight. 2/ Put a larger pipe in the culvert under the drive out the front. Ok, its over to every one else.

I resolve to not make any more New Year's Resolutions since I never keep up with them anyway.

I'm going to spend more time fishing this year! Spent 6 months of last year recovering from pneumonia and the other six months trying to get caught up at work from the first six months.

The increased activities of #1 will lead to the desired cash flow to accomplish #2, and will necessarily make #3 happen as well, while on-the-road working and playing more. |

You can save loads of cash if you don't drink, don't smoke, don't do drugs and don't fix old cars!
