I do ponder on it - it seems to suit my brother very well. But yes, it
seems a huge step.

As I've said, currently I require no medication for the diabetes,
although I am taking statins. I am aware, however, that this can and
almost certainly will change in time. The longer I can hold that off

If I didn't have house, wife, and child on the way, then I wouldn't be
here now. I'd be in Australia.

Looking back, I can even see the point in my life when I should have
gone. May 2001 it was.

 

Crikey, you really are full of regrets at the moment, aren't you.
