Richard....I have plenty of time on my hands to pass by being disabled. I have very many friends on here some old ones and some newer ones...it gives me a chance to share my love for building/collecting and maybe find help or get to offer help to others here who need it...it makes things easier for everyone in the end. Some members are more active like me due to they have the time to be while others work,family,etc.takes some of their time away giving them less time to be here. Me being on a very strict small budget I have more time to be here while others are building constantly and cant be as active as me....there is lots of reason we all are more or less active here.
