Good. You've got past the knee-jerk explanation for being broke which goes...
"You don't even know!!! I love my kids and I would never change what happened, you haven't got kids so maybe you should just grow up!!!!"
Followed sooner or later by..
"I'm so fed up. All I do is work. I come home and carry on. Why can't I have a bit of money and time to myself. All I do is look after other people"
"Gaz, I'm going to have another kid!!"
Repeat.
Do what one of my friends does every time one of his kids becomes an adult and he might finally have a bit of time and money....
Meet a new woman and make a new human.
I spring cleaned the house. Steam mop, hand steamer, 2 bottles of bleach, a bag of vanish carpet cleaner (worked amazing) 2 bottles of febreeze, toilet freshener and in cistern freshener, washed couch covers, cushion covers, new bedding.
No pics.
I pioneered this phenomena a couple of weeks ago.
I was being quoted thousands. Plural. By companies that would even quote me.
Sky who I was previously with couldn't even give me a quote. Nor Adrian Flux.
It was 800 quid with Sky last time. From 800 quid to not even being able to quote me. Others were 4k plus if I recall.
Something has definitely changed in the insurance world and it's not just the change in tax.

Gearing up to get the car in at the garage. The end is in sight now. It's been 2 years of waiting and saving.
Having a good slap around the chops with the old depression stick weilded by the misery monster at the moment.
I'm getting sick to death of spending every day alone and doing everything alone and not having a vocal conversation with anyone.
Everyone I have to converse with is always in a professional setting, university.
Really hard work trying to make new buddies in your middle 30s. No one's accepting new members to the buddy club, and are maxed out with kids and girlfriends/wives.
And to be honest, people tend to be wary of you - 35, single and no chums.
I've given up on my set. I can't believe having a child renders you unable to text someone you've known for 25 years.
Getting vomited from my relationship 10 months ago has really crimped by pipe.
At least I have the voices...
Dan if you do go to the lakes go to tweedies. Great food and live music and great ales.
I went round the lakes a few times in the Z. Is a Lambo that much fatter?
Blackpool promenade. Easy hit two zero zero by the end. Go late at night on a weekend and pedestrians are collateral damage for such a feat of speed. The constabulary will not apprehend you for it as it'll just save them the hassle.
Lol what am I typing.
Irn Bru and automotive homicide.
Jeez.
