Ok, so still feeling crap I haul my sorry arse around Sainsburys to get back in time to accept a “hand made” present one of my sons has had made for his girlfriend, he doesn’t want her to find it and also to have a prearranged FaceTime with my other two sons
Halfway through the chat, door bell goes...”hang on guys, I’ll just get Alan’s parcel”
”Mr Dowman?” says the guy in pink sunglasses...which match the big pink van, I know someone with a pink van....and who are all these people with phone cameras? That’s Rich and Stretch and DaveyDave...delivery guy takes of sunglasses “Hi Dave”...it’s Diddums....”oh, fuck off, no!”
That was my total ungracious response to eight of FG’s finest turning up on my doorstep today to show me how easy it was to build a gaming rig from the parts that you really generous people had sourced. Due to my not being too well, I didn’t think to take any pictures but there must plenty about which will probably go up later
Give the lads their due, the build only took about two hours and the results are fantastic. As with every PC, there are a couple of leads to sort out but that will be done by the time my son and I get the desk out of loft and rebuilt.
We meet up in town later for a meal which was a blast and a chance for a face to face catch up including Rodd and Nicky who couldn’t get there earlier...and yes, all three of my sons were in on it as well!
So thank you again to Dave, DaveyDave, Stretch, Rich, Phil, Lee, Greboth and Gary, all you other wonderful people in whichever way you helped, and thank you Kyla for the hamper!
God bless you all.....Dave
