new life
I move 31st jan to southampton date now confirmed. have been down today and seen a flat and its ok but soooo small. everything so much dearer down there. had to rehome max (my dog) and those of u who know me will understand how hard that was.
my house has gone already first to see it after one day on the rental market and its rented from march. so good and bad things from this new job and life. any contacts in southampton please say hi as i need a few friends there. i am away most of next week back to my old office for 5 days and then move. i have a set of drums for sale too (no room) in this flat. still onwards and upwards hey.

Ash,
I was really saddened to read this. Except for the 'onwards and upwards ' thought at the end.
There's only one thing we can count on in life and that is change. So we just gotta do the best we can.
I'm sure the best will come Ash. I know you are positive.
Just rub Steve
The future is where you will spend the rest of your life.

be positive shrek, changes are better when we think that we can do something positive results out of negative ones.. small flats are easy to clean, it wont feel empty coz our bulging presence makes it full.. ( just admitting i need weight loss program) you'll be fine

Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

thanks for all the kindness, i am really looking forward to my new job and the new life in southampton. my intention was not to make anyone think i was not looking forward to it. just noted down some really hard stuff such as losing max
i actually cant wait to get there. my house is now rented from march the 01st . i move in my flat on feb 04th. new job starts feb 01st. bveen down and checked out the flat and the area and its all good. next thing to do now is sell the caravan and my drums as no room for either and i might buy my self a convertible mercedes always wanted one. no im not rich i can only have an older one
but that will make me smile every day. just need a lovely lady to take up the passenger seat now.
it is really great t have such friends and support on here so BIG thanks.

Ash, that is really gonna cost you my friend.
I am a real Merc fan and still have two including W140 S320 (originally cost £72k)
Apart from the fact they cost an arm and a leg the maintenance is cruel.
A set of wipers for my S320 is £98
Why not consider something like Mazda MX5. Nice, reliable, cheap, and so pretty. The 1.8 goes like .........
I had a special edition with leather interior and walnut trim. By gosh it hugged that road and was quick.

Another point in having an expensive car is where you can park it safely!
As you are moving to a flat does it have private parking?
I live in a block of flats with a car park, but however far from other cars I try to park my doors get paint knocks on all the time.
I try to keep my Ford KA clean but wonder if it is worth it at times
Mick.

Good luck with your move, and I hope you find happiness ahead.
The up-side of a small place is that it's a lot easier to take care of, and should be cheaper on bills.
If you do get a nice sporty car (Mine is a TVR), you can probably rent a garage for not too much.
A 'classic' type of car will be really cheap to insure too.
Mine is group 20 and only costs me £160 a year (5,000 miles) fully comp on classic car policy, and that's a convertible car that will top 150 and get to 60 in about 5 secs.
