Subject: Hello & Merry Christmas
Posted By Martin on 23-12-2009
Hi Gang,
Thought I'd join the crowd popping their heads around the door to offer seasons greetings!
A good year for me, very busy, no recession, not good prices but hey! bills are paid for another year.
Married life is good, no probs :-) Some of you lot should try it! :-)
There was a potentially sticky bit earlier in the year when mrs Martin's eldest son got married, a few shenanigans on top table seating and "not having my photo taken with him/her/them" type arguments but the day went well really. You'd think 7 years would be enough water under the bridge but hey ho! if people want to be stuck in the mud let them I say :-)
My eldest D has started house hunting with her long term b/f so it might be one down, one to go soon! (the opposite stance to most on here sadly :-( )
We've added two kittens to the menangerie (sic) so thats 3 cats and one dog now.
It's one year and two weeks today since i gave up smoking :-p yay
Simes will be pleased to hear that I'm not going on holiday until at least next year!
To anyone just starting out on this gut wrenching time called divorce, I can promise you that things eventually do get better :-)
Very best wishes to all.
'Martin'

Now that's a coincidence. I was just thinking about the time you wisely advised someone that financial settlements were too complex for a calculator. You have been proved right.
I'm afraid as far as marriage is concerned I've been there and got the t shirt but I'm glad it's working for you. Obviously you are taking too many holidays because you are sorely missed here.
All the best and Merry Christmas. xxx

Most who rush into it second time fail and 60% of second marriages with children fail so I think it's best to take your time. I am.
Glad it's all working out. I had a really good year too. 2010 will be even better.
Happy Christmas
