<p>If you are a lazy person that takes several months to move your gear, maybe you should look in the mirror and ask yourself that question. I spend around 20 hours a week volunteering for a local community organisation, I take the same approach to it that I do in my commercial world, the day I get up and question that commitment is the day I need to leave it to someone else with the commitment.</p>

<p>Volunteering requires a level of commitment...</p>
<p>Harsh words? Maybe, but I don't live under a rock, don't expect someone else has it in hand, dont go round with fingers in my ears or walk on cotton friggin wool :)</p>
