  • Oh Adrian :) - I sporadically read your old thread and love reading your updates! I think you're so full of enthusiasm and good cheer - hearing from you always puts a wee smile on my face! Lots of luck in your new venture and congratulations on putting your depression behind you. I know how that feels - about 5 months ago I was officially diagnosed as not depressed - I still have issues with low self esteem and general crankiness and bad tempered-ness (just ask my nearest and dearest!) but I'm off the anti-depressants.

    I'll be keeping an eye on your diary!
