    It's at this time of year it really hits home when you feel like that - most folk try and wait till after christmas but at least he's being honest and getting out now. January usually is break up central.

    These things happen Lou, maybe you can stay friends with his ex?

    Oh Lou, I'm really sorry to hear that *hugs*. Maybe with everything that's been going on lately he's decided that life's too short to be unhappy? Although it's not really on that it's another thing for your family to deal with. Mine are the same, bottle things up and then bang.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Thank God.........Mam went for her 2nd examination today and they cannot find anything at all so she doesnt have to go back to the breast clinic for another 3 years:j:beer::j

    Although she is fighting to get yearly mammograms as the family history is so high.

    In other news, I cannot speak AT ALL, down to a mere squeak so I am drinking a hot toddie to sooth my vocal chords. Coughing up gunk (nice) and my back is really twingy due to the coughing.

    I need a holiday:o
