It's all down to me
I no longer need wonder at what point someone else is gonna make me homeless. Which is the feeling I've had since 1993.
I'm the sole name on my mortgage. And that's the way it will stay. I understand that other factors may come into play to force me into a cardboard box under a bridge somewhere, but at least it wont be on a whim and a prayer of some vacuous shallow bint with the morals of a footballers wife.
I came out the other end of my little adventure, battered, bruised and scared for life. It wont happen again, and because of this I carry a small bit of peace that I unfold every night before I fall asleep.
If you're married and a UK bloke then God help you. You'll need it. Our legal system hates you with a passion, it'll leave you bankrupt, homeless and it'll take your children away...especially if you're the one who remained faithful as blame isn't a factor when dealing with divorce.
Tomorrow I'll be talking about the positive side of suicide.

Just catching up on your blog!!
Proud of you mate. You've done what seemed impossible to you just a year ago. Glad I was there to witness the transformation of hope into reality.
I wish you a very happy future!
