    Probably way back Freddy, mrs doesn't want to be wife or mother anymore so selling up and getting back on with life, you only get one so whats the use of spending it in trouble and strife, you count up the years, and they will be filled with tears......

    OMG... Morphed into Candy Staton for a minute there:DOH:

        Cheers Sheal,

        Can't get any worse now I hope:thumbsup: I'm starting to drag myself out of the mental sucking peat bog that i've been sinking into.

        The one where you just sit in your room for days on end not knowing what to do next. There is a whole garden out there that i've not been able to face. Will launch at it with irrational exhuberance now.

            I'm delighted for you. About time that other door opened - you know, the one that's always supposed to open when another closes?

                Hiya Ziggy.

                Any plans on where you'll move to?

                Hey Freddy,

                Not sure yet, depends on which College Willow gets into, all a bit up in the air really. If it were just me then i'd be happy in the caravan.

                Don't like the idea of Willow coming home to an empty flat while i'm working away. Oh, we seem to have adopted a homeless boy as well, don't know what he's going to do, not even sure what he's living off, I can't afford to feed him:what:

                Hiya Ziggy.

                You said..."Will launch at it with irrational exhuberance now." Is there any point if you're moving?

                With my first house, I didn't bother with the veg plot as I thought i'd sell just like that.

                Then Thatcher's recession kicked in, the mortgage went from £300 a month to £650 (I was only bringing home £425 a month) & we found ourselves starving, living off Alfalfa sprouts, homemade bread & Fat Hen.

                So yes, garden as if your life depends on it, right upto the last minute.

                Plus I want to make it look as attractive as possible for marketing porpoises.

                  Rochester is cheap, Zig. :heehee: And we're a friendly lot. Well, most of us. We're famous again at the moment; the BBC shot 'Edwin Drood' just down the road. Although a lot of it was filmed at night. :D
