Yeh.....Just like Stevie Gerrard...I signed up for life!!

Mind you not quite the money deal Stevies on but well OK for me.......BUT.......

I am bored sick of it!!!!!!!!!!

If I had my time again I would study IT.  Back in the late 80's when I started PCs were just getting going and I could do BASIC on an old Commadore 64. If I'd have gone for it I could have been a progrmmmer and disigner and be retired now................but I didn't!

So, here I am 25 years on, lovely wife and 22 yr old daughter own home (still morgaged!) good window cleaning business.........AND......to top it all.......a SKODA OCTAVIA................WOO HOO!!

When I look beyond the day to day boredom I'm a happy bunny  ;) ;)

I will be in this game for as long as I can.

I started 15 years ago through a friend who had the means to give me 3 days a week. After a few months I started up on my own and have never looked back.

I moved to Ireland 5 months ago and have started up a new business here. I'm loving it. I will be 50 this year and in good nick physically, so hopefully it should see me through a good few years yet.  :)

Nothing wrong with an Octavia, I bought the Skoda Octavia Scout Estate 4x4 in the summer and LOVE IT.
