First of all my sincere apology to who ever I've upset due to my reactive replies to what I felt were totally irrelevant responses to my post. Perhaps taking things just a little too personally due to it being my child. But I was after all ... Read More

Thanks Ralph and Fred. The cops in our neck of the woods are a little laid back. They would have no interest in taking action against their drinking/cock fighting buddies. They only get active if there's a dollar in breaking up an unsanctioned ... Read More
