Hi there

It's been a bit of a torrid time, if things could go wrong with the proposed house build it has. The company we paid a deposit to advised us three months later that they could no longer do our house build and were exiting from the franchise of the group building company we had selected plans for and spent months on setting up fittings for the planned home.

At the time we were told we had been renting for three months having sold our family home to fund the new build and planned on being out for 12 months. It's now just over four months since we signed our contract and have nothing to show for it, not even the final plans that should have been sent off for approval to build over two months ago :(

We're now in the process of finding a new company to do our house build while working with lawyers to recoup damages from the builder we signed with initially.

So apologies to many folks who have emailed me but not received a reply or who have dropped me a note on Agency or via netmail and met with a similar silence... it's (as you would appreciate) a stressful and busy time for my family as we try to navigate a way forward that will work for our budget and circumstances.

I think once we can sort out a new builder / contract / feeling like progress is 'finally' being made... then I can spend time on fsxNet and the BBS hobby.

If anyone is wanting a node number please sign up with either NET 3 or NET 2 and Deon or Todd can allocate you something for now.

Best, Paul aka Avon
