    I've just popped back on, and seen all the lovely replies to my post, it made me quite emotional , but in a good way. I am so glad I found this site, I am feeling better. It's been a lonely old road, but I am sure things are going to get better from now on.
    I will post my SOA, over the weekend and then hide :rotfl: See, I'm laughing.I know it's not funny really, but it's a long time since I felt this positive.
    Cheers everyone and thanks again
