Thanks Gilly, Lopez, it's damn nice to be told things like that rather than guessing and hoping that that's the case.
Jen - glad you enjoyed watching me doing silly stuff, more fun doing than watching though. You going to give it a go next year? And you do so giggle like a girl!!
And it's a nice sound so don't you dare stop it.
Sadgeek - cheers matey.
I wish I could give you a proper answer, but it was a process rather than an event, and I can't really remember any great detail from around then. I do know that it was the tadpoles that made me realise something was wrong. My daughter, 4 at the time, spilt her drink on the carpet and I totally overreacted to this trivial incident, which was what decided me into going to the doctor and being diagnosed. And if I hadn't had my responsibility towards them I don't know if I'd have cared enough to carry on. I don't mean I was actively feeling suicidal, just that I didn't
care enough to put the effort into carrying on, if you see what I mean.
Awww, thanks Tiggy, I'm glad we got the chance to have a chat, seeing as how we missed out at Alton Towers. You too 8 |3all.
I guess that knowing what the downside is like makes you appreciate the upside more. Weren't the stars beautiful? And I'm glad that my somewhat offbeat sense of humour was appreciated too.
