    Divorced, moved, been to court to get the bastard who stole my cash locked up, reired, got a dog, laughed, cried. What a day that was

    Since then I've gone through puberty (don't worry Jersey you'll get there),
    Lost my virginity (sorry Jersey, the juries out on that one)
    Finished school,
    Left home,
    Fallen in love,
    Realised it's not love when a woman lets you sleep with them regularly even though you actually dislike them as a person
    And attempted but failed in a rather spectacular fashion to grow a moustache and goatee in my teens.

    Good times.

    It was two or three days after I 'd an operation on a double hernia. I had to drink half a bottle of vodka to get through without weeping in pain and it was atrocious.

    I saw her again the following week.

    4 jobs.

    12 cars.

    3 homes.

    **** knows on the women!

    Moved to Spain.

    Lost the ability to stay in shape without any effort, gained the ability to have a hangover for 2 days after the event.

    Discovered afternoon naps on the settee are actually a good thing.

    Ha, i used to look at my dad kipping on the settee and think 'how the **** does he do that??'.

    I think because a lot of days i have very little to do, my brain switches off, hence the kip, which i always enjoy very much!

    I'll be having one after the match finishes.

    It's no good when i'm trying to keep a business afloat (in a foreign country) and the gaffer is a lazy twat (but a fairly generous one).

    Think people get old before their time.....................

    Good lad, but as thnigs get bigger and money expands, the men at the top get more complacient. Don't be fooled by what you see in the early days (my only advice on living abroad).

    Aye, it's a pretty simple world i'm dealing in though mate, if i'm putting punters in the bars, then the bar owners are delighted, fortunately the bar owners i'm working with are top class lads, and i'd say we're friends as much as we are in business now.

    I don't promote my nights in any chain bars or anything like that, as they want too much control, and have too many people prepared to do what they want, i consider everything before i commit to a bar, and one of the main considerations is my opinion of the owners, and how my relationship with them is likely to be.

    Put on at least a stone in weight; got married; had my first child (and the absolute love of my life she is too) divorced; wasted £1000's on voodoo dolls of my ex-**** that havent worked; got a degree late in life; changed jobs 4 times; 5 cars (BB you flash ****er LOL); moved house twice; met and lost the love of my life (my fault for being a total twat as a result of my ****ed up marriage I'm afraid - shame as she was perfect too) and have aged about 40 years watching the lads. Oh, and I seem to be a regular on message boards? What the bloody hell were they 14 years ago?

    Apart from that **** all really.:emoticon-0103-cool:

    PS - with you on that hangover thing as well. I hate getting older. It takes me all my time to get over doing what I used to do all the time? :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    They weren't all chariots to be proud of in the early days mate! (and after realising 14 years is my entire drivong life, it's a LOT more than 12!)

    Sure BM held that trophy aloft on this day all that time ago.
