Hey i've been a busy lad for the most part.
I've been fine thanks dweez,Skadi  :)
Making lots of grog and detoxing off of my methadone script,im down to 16ml now,so im near the end which is the worst part of it.
   You'd be surprised by how much dropping 2ml has an effect on a person.
Looking forward to the end of February,then i'll be clean.  8)

That's the spirit Gee.

Mucho repect for your efforts as it's not easy to do just one of the positive actions you've taken, let alone a handful. 

I was nearly in Amsterdam at the beginning of this month as my best mate celebrated his 40th (well actually it was his missus' 40th as his isn't until December - but they combined it anyhow), but I couldn't get away from a job I was on.  I am going to take the beast on a Euro roadtrip next year with my son, so maybe I'll hit the Netherlands then?

Keep up the good work mate.

Welcome back Gee, it's good to hear you sounding so upbeat - and no wonder with what you've been accomplishing. Nice one mate.

You'll be 42 next spring as well, don't forget, according to Douglas Adams 42 is the "answer to life, the universe, and everything".

Yeah, we swapped one set of American owners for another. At least they'll pay off the debt.  :(

damn crazy huh?
Overpaid footballers,this obsession to own a club by rich Americans with more money than sense.
  The 70's and early 80's were a better time for football i think sometimes.

Me too. Liverpool were winning everything then.  :D

And men could walk around with perms and not get laughed at.

Nah, they still got laughed at.  It was their medallions that people took seriously.
