Well done, another hero member  thumbs up


I'm pleased I found a garage 150 yards away from my flat behind some trees after 4 months of living there.
All those nights where I walked into town to get fags in the evening from the 24 hr shop when I could have just walked across the road.  Cheesy

Gonna be a Papi.....enough said....July 5th

This is indeed one of the greatest joys in life. And then you get to watch them grow......and grow....and on their 16th birthday, you get them a suitcase! Cheesy

Birth is a particularly emotional time.

Well, I wasn't gonna mention it, don't wanna rub it in or anything. Don't think everyone thinks it as big a deal as I do. Mentioned it enough already.

I am also pleased about my relationship with Leon.

We met in Malta on holiday when I was 14, he was 16. My Mum and his parents had got talking, and his younger sister and my sister had become friends, anyway... Mum told me to look at the blonde one, and I thought he was quite nice Cheesy We managed to spend some time together getting to know each other, we walked around the beach together and then at the end of the night I asked him out and he said "I'll give it a go!" We spent the rest of the 10 days holiday together and when it was time to leave each other at Gatwick airport we were both really sad... I knew I liked him but didn't think it would last because he lived in Canterbury and I lived in Watford.

We spoke on the phone a lot for the first 3 days after we'd arrived home and then on the Friday he called me and told me to get dressed, I had a feeling he was going to arrive at my house but didn't want to get my hopes up. Anyway about an hour later he arrives with his whole family in tow! We went out for lunch and I went back to Canterbury with them. After that we saw each other every 2 weeks, I'd go up on the train, a 3 hour long journey each way costing me £15 a time! Then I started going up every week and spending all the school holidays there.

4 years and 9 months on, we're still going strong. It makes me happy because we managed to get bthrough all the things that would be against us:

1. Holiday Romance
2. Long Distance Relationship
3. Young Love

I'm pleased we've managed to last and pleased that we have a bright future ahead of us

thats dead sweet, hope it never ends

So the question is..... What things are you personally really chuffed about, that may not seem such a big deal to others?
Interesting topic, Ginger Star...  Cool

I am dead chuffed with my new wireless jobbie; I can browse forums and play STTs from the living room sofa whilst watching the Aussie Open live on Eurosport at 5 in the morning. Used to be TV or poker, not both... (not a big deal to anyone but me!)  Cheesy

What a great question to ask - it sound as if it come from one content soul! That was all I was going to say - but then it got me thinking…..

As a kid back in the 60‘s, my mother told me of an old Greek saying “Rather an hour of freedom, than a lifetime of imprisonment”. I of course could not understand the meaning of the quote. At the time, I argued that an hour was far too short. My mother replied that some people, never even get an hour.

In the year 2000 and at the age of 44, I not only understood what she meant - I craved that hour more than anything in my life. And so I left my old secure but meaningless life behind, and began a journey into the unknown. And apart from becoming a “pro” poker player - it has been an incredible journey of discovery. I have so much to be thankful for and feel so very humbled that my one hour has lasted nearly six years.
