Hi All, the last few months have been on the darker side of enjoyable. At first, the idea of having no job and being free to do as I pleased was exciting and a bit of an adventure. However, as time progressed the darkness slowly but surely closed in and it carried my normally jolly character with it. So I haven't been the pleasantest of people to be around lately - and sadly those who have suffered the most have been my family. Hence I've not been adding to my blog as a means of steeringmyself back onto the happier path that I should be travelling. I've been off doing training courses for various agencies and with fair wind and a dollop of good luck - some good will come of them soon.

So this is just a little apology to those who are looking for regular updates that I'm going to stay quiet until I'm into a brighter period of my life. I'd like to add a big vote of thanks to all of you who have offered wishes of good luck and advice on paths to follow. It has been one heck of a journey so far but its not over yet.
