    Gawd. As a friend of mine once said, "too many mistakes too long ago".

    Just one question "Where has all the money gone?"!

    Big, manly pat on the back to you Oggy, sounds like you've done a fantastic job of being a dad. I know how hard it is to be a parent and I've been lucky enough to have Mrs AUN by my side. To do so well under your circumstances merits huge admiration. You're an example of a 'real' man.
    And never lose hope of a reconciliation with your daughter. I didn't speak to my dad for nearly twenty years but then I realised life really is too short.

    Not joining the Royal Marines, after failing athe medical when I was 15-16, I started training to get fitter, but then I discovered birds and lager and it fizzled out.

    For me it was discovering weed and an emergence of a 'rebel without a cause' attitude at 17 that did it for me. Was all set for uni then BOOM screwed it all up. My preperation for an afternoon history A level exam was a two hour soak in the tub with a fxxk-off big spliff. Needless to say I failed all four A levels and the rest, as they say, is history :(

    1. Emigrating to America
    2. My divorce (out of my control. She left me)

    They're the big ones.

    My relationship with my dad has been pretty much tarnished for many years. I lost respect for him for the way he left my mum and then went on to make some pretty big mistakes which hurt a lot of people.
