hey you are back! 

 Yes, was a bit of a hiatus.  

 Good to see you active for the moment 🫂 I hope everything is okay with your family.   

 Likewise! Thanks! Was mainly just stuff that took up what little "free time" I had. All good now! 

 Have you shared a breakdown of costs? I've been looking for information on the realities of running a relay. 

 Did in the past. Posted in this thread the general setup.  

 Hope the family is all good.

 Thanks! Tried that route got crickets.  

 Damn. Maybe they just don't have funds. Not sure why you wouldn't at least get a reply back. 

Thank you though for your relay service 💜 

 If they don't have funds how did they pay for the crickets? 

 With your tears. You will own nothing, eat crickets and be happy.
