That's a shame Alan. I'm suprised no ones offered to comfort Sarah yet... Will Gower School's still be in the middle of nowhere or are you going to move somewhere sensible? ps. will we finally see you on a BOTAFOT?
No - my parents and then the couple whose flat I had digs in for my first year at polytechnic. Not only is it really fun crying yourself to sleep while your parents scream the house down but it's also a real jamboree day to return from college to find 2/3s of the flat is disappearing out of the front door. Great times. All that it has really taught me is that those people who have somehow built a happy family and a tolerant and understanding relationship have done a rather amazing thing. People who have a "stable" family really should learn to appreciate it for what it is. No one should have to deal with the ramifications of a divorce but I recognise that there are loads of reasons why they happen. I'm think I'm too single minded and independent to be able to commit to a long term relationship but then "Mr Right" hasn't turned up to make a better person.
Still, best to look on the bright side, most dry cleaners have an excellent shirt ironing service these days. Seriously, never great to hear this kind of thing so hope it all works out.
Bugger. You know where we are if you want to pop in, and roughly where we will be if you feel the need to visit some sheep ;-)

Alan, hope it all works out for you and the family. Spending the winter in LA seems like a bloody sensible idea to me. Daytime temperatures are currently hovering around 20 deg C.

So sorry to hear this Alan, keep yer chin up, and don't let any bastards turn off the light at the end of the tunnel. -- Oldbloke 2000 Honda CB500, 1991 Suzuki TS50 (m'boy's) BOTAFOT #140 "He's like Robbo's chubby kid brother"
