I've decided I'm off to Istanbul.
We have talked after about three weeks of <silence> - today she wanted to talk.
She couldn't understand why I didn't know what the problem is?????
She made some good points.
Some things I disagree with.
I do think some is that I've changed - I've lost a lot of weight and still losing and I'm not the man she first met.
Apparently it's been hell being with me the last 4 years(?) - thats what she said last week but she now 'cant remember' saying it???
If it was that bad - why did she ask me to move in 6 months ago?
Life is not good.

7.5/10 - Went to see some friends today.
Looking forward to getting my head down for a few hours sleep this week at the client's site.
I'm still winding down - for Easter.

Madness! Saw them Friday night - brilliant.
When I was at school there was a joke (if that's the right word) -
Constantinople is a very big word, but if you can't spell it you're a fool.
Cheer up Tingles - midlife crisis won't last too long - soon you'll be old...
