  1. well a little update.. picked myself up and got back on my horse.. planned loads of work to the rado and someone ran into the back of it !!!!! but as they say every cloud.... met a bloke who works for the same company as me who was having issues with his rado owned for two years drive for six months..starting problems and mot failure on emissions...anyway lack of love for it and too much for his camper he basically gives me the car and says pay me when you sell yours..... unbelievable...only known the guy five mins so every cloud has a silver lining and in this case its a satin silver valver ....

  15. hi all. I've had a proper crap few weeks and thought i get it off my chest valentines day my 10 year marriage ended. although amicable i struggled for a bit and got down. by the weekend we talked and sorted out what was gonna happen and was coping. haven't told kids yet and we're still living together while we find her a house to rent. im keeping the house on my own. then on 29 my friend and workmate got killed in a motor bike tradegy 200 yards from work. i took the phone call. devastated. i had to tell all employees as im the boss and try to keep it together. the next day i find out partner has been txting a old flame who i also know. she had told me she had a couple of times. which i accepted. i then had the phone bill her phones on my contract and its been everyday since three days before we ended it. first thing in morning ...last thing at night.. when i asked her she said she didn't know the number but admitted it in the end. she even was txting him while comforting me. i knew it was over but we had agreed to be open and amicable.i asked her more than once if there was someone she liked to which she said no so here i am trying to build a new life..and not getting very far. anyway thanks for listening..at least its off my head :-( :'(
