Just had the most incredible thought. It has just struck me how far we have come since our lightbulb moment in 2006.

I am at this moment in time sat in the garden roof terrace of a cafe in a Souk in the middle of one of the richest cities in the world. There are all nationalities round me enjoying good food and coffee and fresh juices and smoking shisha pipes. There are sky scrapers surrounding us andits a balmy 35C. My husband had a job he could only dream about in the UK. The kids go to the best privae school and mix with 74 nationalities and royalty. They do activities like sailing and horse riding and swimming and rock climbing and skiing and guitar and violin lessons to name a few. We live in a million pound house, we drive a new car.

I'm sat here on my iPhone hopefully helping people who are in the same place I was seven years ago.

Feeling quite humble and great ful and thankful.

You inspire many going through BR tiger. It's great that despite your stratospheric rise since BR you've not turned your back on this forum. Your contributions are much appreciated. PS I hope to be in a similar position soon .

Nice post....wish I was there

I'm planning to be in a similar environment as soon as I can.
Well, I mean a tropical location close to the oceanside an sipping an ice cold beer.

I'd like to second what iquit has been said, it's really great that you're still supporting the forum and sharing your knowledge and positivity.

Thanks folks.

I never expected to be where I am today but it is fantastic, I feel incredibly lucky and thank God everyday we managed to turn things around with the help of this fabulous forum and its members.

I especially said thank you when I was at a Tom Jones concert the other day and I was right at the front. I even got some of Toms sweat on me

And hear hear from me as well, TF. Your post is going to give a lot of people going through BR, or preparing for it now, a lot of hope that things do eventually get better.

Congratulations on your success now, you deserve it:beer:

PS: Any room for a lodger
