This is one of my stranger and personal, blog entries.
Santa delivered an early Christmas present to me in the post this week. After being married for nearly 10 years, I finally got divorced from my former wife Evelyn.
I am sure that some of you reading this will probably have forgotton that I was still married and maybe some of you did not even know at all!
I was with Evelyn for a few years, but only with her as a married couple for a record breaking 8 months! However, let's not troll through the story again as it's old news.
The one thing about the whole experience is that it most certainly started me on a downward spiral of bad choices and mistakes in my personal life and made me the person that I am today. The most positive things to come out of the ten year aftermath are having Ryan and Susan in my life.
A special mention has to go to Jim Arthur (who supplied the picture below) and Brian Ward who were there for me and with me through some tough, tough times and I thank them for that.
As for Evelyn? I wish her luck in her personal life. She has just become a Mum for a third time and I am sure that she will excell at Motherhood. It's in her nature.
As for me? I am glad that it is all finally over and I can draw a line in the sand.
So here it is. Only took ten years, thousands of pounds and a bit of heartache...
Normal service will be resumed in the next blog entry, when I will return to talking pish and telling "funny" stories.
See you then!
