in the past few years of this hobby, I have never seen so much phony ads of fake pics, SPs with serious drug problems, SPs who rob and steal from the clients, and others with mental or sexual health issues. I have come to the conclusion that this hobby (just here in Winnipeg) has become unsafe and very unappealing. I consider myself lucky to have maintained contact with 2 retired SPs, one still relatively young, and the other who left to pursue education. I know some of the veteran hobbyists have similar arrangements which tells me that I am not the only one who feels this way. I cannot see myself returning to the hobby anytime soon. Be safe guys.
