    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.

    [snip]

    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.

    Hey there.. a little update from my end...

    We've heard nothing / zero / nada / zip from the building company we originally signed up with and (more disappointingly) nothing from the franchiser parent company since our one and only meeting with them in early June. They said they would be in touch with all the info we were waiting on after 2 weeks... but that deadline came/went weeks ago and nothing since.

    So hopefully this week they both get letters from our lawyers they won't like...

    Meantime we've been looking at two other group builders and one is gelling with us more than the other but it takes time to sort plans, costs etc.. so we're still 4-6 weeks away (best guess) before we look to sign up anything to make a start on round two of 'lets build a house'.

    I login to Agency, see tons of messages waiting for me, and honestly just feel overwhelmed etc. etc. when I do... I have the best of intentions to respond etc. but I guess I just need to put my mental health and energies into where I need them to be at the moment.

    Anywho we're making steps in the right direction and I hope in the coming couple of months we'll be on track again albeit 6-7 behind where we thought we would have been by now.

    Hope you're doing well, waving hello from a chilly wintry New Zealand.

    You just worry about getting your house built and taking care of your fam. We're not going anywhere.

    Paul, don't worry about things here. Real Life takes priority, and sure hope you can get some progress on the house building issues. FSX is doing OK.
