Ok, sorry. I should have read a little further back
Gentlemen,
I'm sorry if I seemed a little snippy at the end of my previous post. I did not scroll down to see that we have several new brothers posting here. Congratulations and welcome! It is not the easiest of avenues to walk, and certainly there will be some bruising if you do it to the best of your abilities, but I'm certain that the seniors will agree that the rewards are unparalleled.
Castle, nice job in providing a soft landing. As Lit said,"do no harm."
Bondo, it is a learning process, as has been said many times before. Get your chops out of the way, and you will be much more comfortable going forward.
Tigger, thanks for the pms, and you are my new hero. Out of curiosity, how do you clear your calendar? Are you an eccentric millionaire?
Newbies, there is much wisdom here. Avail yourselves of it, and don't be shy in pm'ing any of us.
I look forward to reading of your exploits, and sincerely hope I am not relating any sort of news about another little Scottie on the way any time soon, or in fact, ever.
Scott
Not exactly the 'happy hunting grounds'
I haven't been on for a while mainly because I've had nothing to report. Since that initial, and aborative, foray into the SD / SB field, my luck has gone to zero. Out of half a dozen messages sent to various prospective SB's, I've gotten one reply. That reply was simply an indication that the young woman was interested in meeting, and I see from my "Sent Mail" file that she hasn't bothered to read the reply I sent her offering to meet. So, I'm guessing she's either found someone more "promising" (read 'willing to commit large sums of $$$ up front') , or she's having second thoughts about the whole SB scene. Ah, well guess I can keep hunting, huh?
Oh, and Meet#1 emailed me back, asking if I wanted to meet, plus texting me the same question.
So much for getting her to go away soft and easy.
