Bugger me with a fish fork and deep fry me in batter

This time last week I was jobless, homeless and sold my car to prolongue my survival, but "falling" off the humber bridge was looking like the only viable option.

A week later and I have a great job with prospects, a new car that I'm collecting tomorrow, and with a smidge of luck I'll be getting keys to a new home on monday.

Yes to a degree I'm bragging, but I wanted to write this post to hopefully show others that are struggling that the tide can and does turn, just keep the faith and keep pushing forward.

Also there are several people in my life both vanilla friends and fab friends that have helped and supported me a great deal over the last few months and I wanted to say to the lovely people of fab that I am forever in your debt some of you truly are amazing

In this case you have a right to brag. That’s a steep curve that you’ve managed to curtail. I don’t know you, but I’m proud of you. I wish you the same success going forward
