4robs is finished
« on: November 25, 2008, 09:39:08 pm »
My shed burnt to the ground this afternoon. We lost everything in it. The kids bikes, my SWM and KTM collection, the TLRs I just found. The moulds for VMX and Trials rubber bits, the irreplaceable parts that all you good folk had sent me, all the machinery, all the tools, tractor, float, camper,.........Not sure what to do or say, I'm so sorry for losing your parts....no insurance for urethane fires......

Sorry to hear that Rob.

Hopefully no one was hurt and you can salvage somethings out of this?

The few parts I can no longer get from you pale into insignificance against what you have lost.
If you ever restart the business I'll be sending you parts for samples again, and paying in advance.

All the best

Brent

Bad bad news Rob, I do know that horrible gut feeling seeing your treasures burnt to ashes but it is even worse for you , as lost is your business and others goods too.  Let good come to you and yours soon. Tim
I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

What can I say? Why do bad things happen to good people? Hope it doesn't turn out to be quite as bad as it looks right now...

fork, that's awful news.

Nobody deserves this sort of thing, but its particularly bad when it happens to a good bloke.

Good luck in sorting shit out.

The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

I'm sorry to hear the bad news Rob. There's not much anybody can say that'll make it better but for what it's worth, you know we're thinking of you.
