Well what a bloody year lol.

Full of ups and downs more than normal.

I have been ill for most of it with my (ME) problem.

The recession has nearly destroyed my business lol (the same for many people)

Les and I have had our ups and downs and things ain't been great generally.

Have lost a few good friends this year as well

But as the year draws to a close things are lookin up at last.

And the future looks good at last.

Im feeling much better and life seems ta be rosy again.

Would just like to take this opportunity, to thank all the people on the forums for helping keep me Keep sane during the bad times.

And a special thanks to our close friends some who have had real problems with illness and things themselves. (you know who you are and we luvs ya loads)

So here's to the new year folks, we hope very much that it brings you all health and happiness and that life is good for you.

I'm not the best at writing serious posts as many of ya know lol

So will just finish by saying

HAPPY CRISTMAS AND A GREAT NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL xxxxx

Craig xx

A Christmas Encomium

--------------------

As the year draws to it's end,

I find myself pondering all the events,

Of this life changing perfect year.

Many thoughts come rushing unbidden,

To a mind that has been shown,

A capacity for love and friendship,

That has been offered me unrestricted,

By the many people that I have met.

~

All my friends are here with me,

And together we celebrate the life,

And love that we have found,

Through this past year of change.

In evolving emotion, we have also shared,

In the sadness and heartbreak of losing those,

Who will not be here this Christmas.

To them, we toast to absent friends.

~

To the laughter in which we have joined,

But there have been dark times too.

Where we thought that love retreated from light,

We found that it was always ready,

To heal and soothe away the pain,

Blessed by help from those we love,

Who returned a joy, in friendship.

To you, I raise my glass.

~

So as I muse and welcome the season,

The snow has been falling steadily,

The tree of hope occupies it's usual spot,

It's wonders in their customary places,

Awaiting the day of the year.

Matriarchs quietly making plans,

To spend the day gathered together as,

A welcome warmth has invaded my life.

~

Outside, berries red resplendent,

Show starkly against the purifying white,

A memory of fun stands alone in the garden

His carrot nose and coal eyes,

Begging us to come and play again,

And we shall, another time, another season,

But for now he will stand as a monument,

Until the great thaw sends him home.

~

My children are preparing,

Excitement illuminating expectant faces,

So small and full of innocent joy,

Awaken in me memories and thoughts,

Of mine own christmas past,

The promise of christmases yet to come,

And lights! and cards! and cakes! and fruit! -

A feast for souls at this time of giving.

~

We make way for the passing of the year,

Into a new tomorrow we run,

Filled with hope and a yen for truth,

That speaks to our souls in ways,

Of which we cannot comprehend.

'Tis enough to know that you are here,

And that at this wondrous time of the year,

I can simply say to all here gathered:

Merry Christmas, my friends,

How I have enjoyed your company.

Wishy. 2001.

"That was lovley mate thank you xxx "

It was the title of your thread that had me digging that poem out. Took me ages to find the database I have them all stored on, I was frantic that I'd lost them all. lol

Merry Christmas pal, I've enjoyed your posts this year.

It's been a testing year one way and another, no more testing than the sudden loss of Kid's mum, no one could have prepared us for the trauma we experienced, it's only at times of great emotional turmoil where one's true friendship really proves itself, we're very, very lucky to have such people around us, so, as the year draws to a close, we'd just like to say, anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to catch your heart, we wish everyone a happy and prosperous 2010.

A world of my own

Overall, 2009 has been a shit year for many people I know personally, and also for people here on the forums, and apart from one or two bright moments it has been one of the worst years I have ever had. But the few good things about 2009 have been brilliant mostly thanks to people I have met via Fabs. Lets all hope for a Healthy Happy and Swinging 2010 for everyone. Lots of love, and Best Wishes and kisses to you all xxxxxx

2009 has been a strange year for me.

I have become more involved with the site, met some wonderful people and made some good friends.

I've also met someone who has changed my life and who I love with all my heart.

To each and everyone of you I wish peace, joy and happiness. Good luck and fun in 2010

2009 has been the worst year i can remember for so many reasons and yet at the same time been a year of learning and adjustment.

Very much determined that 2010 will see those things learned and the adjustments made make the year not just a better one for us but for anyone who knows us as happiness is a wonderful drug that spreads its magic to anyone it touches

Heres one couple wishing all decent people everywhere health happiness and prosperity x

Its been sooo hard on so many people and ive had my share .

But there are those out there who are worse off and dont have somewhere like fabs to come and share.

I think sometimes i would have gone mad if i could have come on here and vented my spleen (in a nice way)

i prefer to laugh than cry and have others laugh with me.

though sometimes lately its been a hard task all round.

IM hoping to have a fresh new year and hopefully a healthier year ..

And i wish you all the very best for 2010

I've had a blast...... most of the time.

Plenty of parties and socials on Fab. Met loads of new people and have made some life long friends.

Saw my eldest daughter graduate from Warwick and get a brilliant job in London with a top law firm.

Saw 2nd daughter get engaged and take over a pub/hotel.

Watching my son grow nearly 4" over the year. Considering he was only 1lb 4oz when he was born, I don't think 6ft 3" is bad for a 15 year old!

Passed my degree.

Got a brand new job with the Army.

Bad points........

nearly looking for hubby number 4! ......still..... that was only a nearly, and Jason might be a twat but he's my twat.

And ending the year with the flu.

I ain't done soooooooo bad.

My heart goes out to those that have had a rotten year and I wish you all a brilliant and prosperous New Year.

My 2009 has been a double edged sword I had surgery to supposedly help me (it didnt do as well as I wanted) and I only got the surgery cos the condition got so bad I NEEDED it!!

So it was good and bad.

The kids have been great I didnt have to ground them too much so I am very proud of them and their handling of me becoming disabled.

The hubby has been wonderful I would have been lost without him - I hope one day I can make up to him just how understanding and wonderful he has been. Cos in no way was this what he signed up for when he said in sickness and in health!!!

I made new friends on here people who notice if I go awol for a few days.

People who make me laugh, people who make me angry, people who make me cry - mostly with laughter.

I want to say:

THANK YOU ALL

I really hope you all have great 2010 if this year was good I hope next will be as good if it was rubbish I really hope it will be better.

If I were to say all I feel in my heart you'd be asleep or crying, so suffice to say, thank you all for being here, and I hope this coming year is the year it all comes good or better for you. I know I shall be approaching the new year with a brighter outlook and a less troubled heart. Love and peace to you all.

Its has been a great year and a sad year..I lost my dad last year on Dec 28 th..so its been hard this year and particularly difficult in the run up to xmas...but I have met my soulmate...on this site of all places...so he is helping to make this xmas a much better time than it would have been without him in my life.

So thanks to Fab..thanks to all of the brilliant friends we have made both on the site and at Chams...and thanks to all on the forums..much laughter..learning different perspectives...appreciating our differing opinions..anger and thought provoking...at times...but always fun in the end...

Good wishes to you all xxxx
