Default yes im back after my stint away

yes i done wrong yes i fucked up

no i did not steal any ones car they where brought to me by owners
i was trying to help people out and make enough to get things back strait .

i got 2y 9m for a first ofence and no one could beleive i got that includung solicitors and probation. the reason i got this was because i kept my mouth shut and took all the blame my self.

While i was in there i tried to get my life back in order and done some training courses and will be going to work off shore as soon as my tag comes off.

As for paying people back i will gladly do this as soon as i am working tag comes off 4th jan

martins car went wrong The paint wasnt right i had a customer with a bmw buy his own paint and he got the same shit against my advice and it did the same thing. No disrespect to martin but the reason i couldnt redo his car was simple i couldnt cover the cost of redoing it and still covering bills and keeping the place open. this would have ment martins car would get done but all the other cars wouldnt due to losing the garage . I was not going to put him above any one else in that way and if that fucked things for me with passion ford then so be it. I know martin was il but there was no way i could have pulled it off in time and still kept things going i have had cancer my self so i actualy know how bad the feeling is to think it could be over..

I have always tried my best to be as cheep as i can and even done realy big jobs for free to try and help people out. And try to be a friend to customers.

as for other cars that went wrong i had no idea about these till well after they where taken away and couldnt then do anything to help without knowing what was wrong. I did quite alot of cars on my own and the body work was always spot on and still they are looking well. If I had stayed small and done it all my self things would have stayed good but i made that choice and im to blame.

For the people that have slagged me off
In the last 2 year i have lost everything and i do mean everything my missus my home my freedom my garage my dad my brother only to get out and find my mother is realy ill and i my self have another lump now if you think you can do better come wear my shoes .And yes i am still overly inthusiastic to slap the snot out of any of you that wants to come give me shit to my face.

Now to the rest of you who came to say hello and shake my hand at croft rsoc and there was a lot of you thank you you show true understanding and compassion


to the mods plese dont deleate this i dont realy give a shit what they say

Don't really know you mate other than on here and only know bits about what's happened the main one being martins car.

Now the way I see it is we all do wrong and we all make bad choices in life some worse than others but it has to be said its good of you to come on here and publicly apologise and offer to repay people back.

When all said and done you lost a lot more than they did and it will take you a long time to build things back up but you'll get there and best of luck.

You're real friends will forgive you I forgave mine for taking cocaine and dealing and getting 5 years inside.

I'm pleased to say he's out now and really making an effort with his life and doing well.

Good luck

so what actually did you do to get over 2 years?? these days thats quite a long sentance considering what they hand out to scum for beating up old ladies etc.

And why take the blame for something you didnt do?? you suggest you covered things up for others. I certainly wouldnt unless it was close family etc.

I guess youve got to put it behind you and move on now though. good luck.

Never met you Jacko but followed everything with interest. Well done for coming on and owning up. Thats the hardest part I think.

If you pay everyone back you owe, it's lessons learned from all sides
As all the above have said. Just put it behind you and crack on with life.

Bad times, feel for you.

How do you mean "getting rid of cars for customers" as in hiding their ID or scraping them?

We all make mistakes - it takes the bigger man to hold his hands up, admit to what he did and front it. Whatever anyone thinks it whatever anyone thinks. I never got involved in what happened or why as it was none of my buisness but knew that for a time there were some less than complimentary things being said. Each to their own fella, you've never done anything to me so I wish you all the best from here going forward.

Good to see you back Jacko

I have and always will treat people dependent on how they treat me , and you have always been 100% and have been very respectful towards me

You went down a road that was always going to end in desaster but sadly everyone could see this apart from yourself

As far as im bothered you fucked up big time but you accepted what was dished out and didnt try and pass your blame on anyone else

Regards Martins car , i have been in the paint game and shit happens , nothing you could have known would go wrong and you have given the reasons why you couldnt sort it asap

I hope you have learned your lesson Jacko and turn back into the very pleasent and helpful lad i found you to be

Good luck , it cant be easy coming back with all the past round your neck but im sure you will cope and do ok

Paul

Welcome back mate, I must have missed the news your talking about but had a rough time myself with Divorce etc so havent been here as much as usual until recently.

We all make mistakes and head down the wrong path, me included, and I have learnt that fronting it all, dealing with it and moving forward is the only way to get back on track, so welcome back and I hope your future is rosier for you than your past and that your own and your mothers medical issues are positively resolved very soon.

Not interested in what you have done, that's past! Your health and moving on with your life is more important and the choices you make from now on.
I mean it when I say good luck and I hope it gets better for you

I've never met you jacko. We all do wrong.

But Doug is a good friend and what you done to him is not on. He's car is still in he's garage now because of you. He had to pay out again to get the car painted and now can't really afford to get it done as quick as he wanted,

Put what you've done behind you and help the people out who have had to suffer

Never met you Jacko but welcome back,

I too followed the threads of both good and bad stuff, we all make mistakes both with cars and with life in general, god know how your are feeling at the moment.

I have a lot of respect for you coming on here and openly appologising and explaining your situation, I think you can honestly say now that you have been there done it for most situations which should make for an interesting new start for you!!

I wish you really good luck for the future pal and hope you sort out all your stuff with fellow enthusuasts as well as your personal life.

Onwards and upwards mate

I wont be at any other shows this year but next year if you are in the country pop over and say hello.

Chin up

Sounds like you have done the crime and done the time, so all dealt with by the sounds of it and I hope you manage to stay straight and keep it in the past.

I didnt know you had been in trouble for anything other than keeping a crocodile at work TBH http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/te...4229-28359825/ so like Stu says, I wasnt upto speed on the other stuff anyway.

Welcome back.
