Gday Tom,great to get an update as I do enjoy your vids but you do need to do whats good for you and if that means no videos for a while I’m sure we’ll all be happy to wait for new content whenever that may be.Hope you recover well and have a great Xmas and New Year
Good to hear from again Tom. It is really shit when life gets in the way of fun projects, but we are happy to wait to see any updates. Get well, have a good next year, and rock on! Cheers
health, family, work, friends, then hobbies. Good luck with the post surgery recovery and best regards for the festive season. Hope you have early success finding new premises, Tom. Please don’t sell the Ute ✌️
All the best mate, hope the health and business improve soon. Thanks for all the content throughout the year, no need to feel sorry or disappointed things got in the way, we all appreciate when people go out their way to make content like this for us. Merry Christmas to yourself and of course the family, hope you have a great break
Great to see you again mate. Health, finance and business have to take priorities over hobbies I hope all improve for you in 2025. Don't bust a gut (again!) to try to get youtube content out. We'll be patiently waiting, whenever you're ready and able. Merry Christmas.
Starting to wonder where's Tom? And here you are! Great to see you back again, no rush! car restoration done properly does take time anyway and we are patient and will keep watching. 😊
I only looked up your channel the other day Tom, thinking I may have missed some episodes. Fortunately my surgery was keyhole, less invasive through the belly button and a couple of stitches either side of my tummy. Nevertheless get well soon. The XA as it stands, in my opinion 30K would be a reasonable in the current market. All the best for the festive season and take care of yourself and the family. Cheers
G'day Tom wishing you a speedy recovery, a fantastic New year filled with all that you aim for being a little like a walk in the park. ( compared to past medical issues and present recovery issues). 😊
@phatridesgarage3760 Most welcome after 43yrs trade life multiple physical injuries, including dis ability, I have shall we say compassion for other's who suffer in one way or another. Guess my journey has made me realise just how grateful I Am for waking up each day, getting out off bed with no help, and having my eye's open. Every day for 60yrs as of November this year. May you recover rapidly Tom.😊
All the best Tom you only get 1 body look after it and it will look after you going through your surgery blues here too your content in 2024 has been top quality I actually thought you might have married your lady take care. MERRY XMAS
Make sure you warm-up with a walk or lift light stuff, before attempting any lifting. Look after your health, Mate. Best Wishes 2024 Christmas. -Dave from Adelaide
Hey Tom, great to see you back. Take your time to get healthy - physically and financially. I think that what Metal Mania says I would have said too. Look after yourself mate, and have a great Xmas and New Year. PS a 40cm incision could’ve been cool - you could tell people it was a shark attack 😎
Its good to see you again. Sad to see that things are not going as well as you would have liked and it must have been tough to lay your driver's off. Money and health are a big factor in life, to have both hit you at once is not fun. I hope Christmas and the new year have something better for you. However you take the channel I hope we can still follow your efforts in getting the cars back on the road. Cheers and merry Christmas to you and your loved ones.
Good to see Tom, sorry about what's been happening, It's a bugger, but your own health is more important than anything, dont sell anything unless you desperately need to, as projects in that state will always sell at a loss, I've been there, but you do what you need to do, big toys unfortunately cost big bucks, as you know, hopefully everything will turn around for you in 2025, no stress about content, us genuine subscribers are happy to watch when ever you can, in saying that wishing you all the best, Merry Christmas to you and your family and lets all hope 2025 works in all our favours, till next time take care and stay Safe these Happy holidays 🍻 KC 🇦🇺🦘🪃🏔🇳🇿🥝🤝🇳🇿🥝🎄🎅🧑🎄🤶🎄🍻🍻🍻
Merry Christmas. Sorry to hear your business has had a downturn lots of it happening out there unfortunately. Don’t think you’re on your own in having to cut back a little. Let’s hope 2025 is a better year
Good to see you Tom your health comes first and lively hood to get by, the car's I've sold over the years I've really regretted selling. But sometimes circumstances are unavoidable Merry Christmas mate.
It's amazing how ruthless the people are who own the buildings are with increasing rent almost constantly. Only thing that's not going up are people's wages
@@xacoupeguy Yeah you got that Right Graham ! Rent increases as expected as per contracts but Who ever expects the outgoungs to increase 20% per year every year for the last 3-4 years its crap . Anyway have a good Xmas mate !
Health and finances are more important, we can wait for video content! You may be better off getting out of the city find a nice semi rural area for your workshop
