I thought we were all supposed to be in this together. The survival of the species, the thwarting of TPTB, the undermining of globalisation........Maybe I was wrong..........????? Was I ??????


Hi Lunatic & Welcome to the Melbourne Forum. Happy you spoke up. The get togethers have been inspiring and very rewarding. What we found was instant friends, facing similar goals and challenges. Conversation was vibrant at times to say the least, informative and very constructive. We also found Johnno to be a GREAT GUY who is considerate of others needs, a great listener and encourager as well as having a wealth of knowledge and resources which he gladly offers. Not only does he monitor the forums, he also is trying to kick start the Melb. Ground Crew and you know what the logistics of organising people who haven't met can be like!!! Anyway thankfully for us all, he keeps at it.
Robski, is another instant friend that we have know for a long time!!! No holds barred, a good person also seeking truth with a lot of wisdom that he also freely shares. And put on your running shoes he is for real, does what he says, inspiring to see the productiveness that is happening as a result of our meetings so far.
As a result of the above meetings and some of my strengths - I too have been inspired to put together a lot of the data/info/contacts that is PRACTICAL, RELEVANT with Aussie related contacts for the Melb.Ground Crew. Keep you updated on the progress. So please come to the next meeting, if you can.
Cheers and be good to you. Pep
