Not bad i suppose...

The cliché'd line "its flew in" has never been so suitable though, really does seem like its been and gone in no time.

Not a bad year all up but there is room for improvement as always! Graduated from uni with a 2:1, emigrated to Australia, got great job in IT that pays really well, bought a cossie, sold the cossie, bought a Lexus. Not bad but I want a cossie again and its only been a week!

Hope next year brings the best for everyone

Mine started off really well and then went rapidly downhill after April.
My mum started saying she had difficulty reading, writing and spelling, went for a scan and the hospital diagnosed a malignant brain tumour.
Told her they couldn't do anything in June (on her birthday)
Did nothing
Died in hospital 10 weeks later aged 57

So, yes, pretty SHIT.....hopefully 2005 will be better

Its been an eventful year

Good bits
Got another Escort
Bought a 3dr track car
Sold 9 houses (17 to go)
Paid my mortgage off
Don't need heart surgery *TBC*
Became a Godfather

Bad bits
My Mom had a stroke
I had a heart attack
Lost a great friend to cancer
Got burgled while in hospital
Split with long term girlfriend
Its pissed it down 5 out of 7 days as soon as I got my Cos!
Stopped drinking

Highlight of 2005
Hearing "I'm Alive" by the Hollies playing on radio when I came round in ICU as it made me smile at a time I didn't feel too happy about anything.

Roll On 2005

Had a shit year, had my finger crushed in an accident at work so was off for 5 weeks and couldn't help the missus move into our new place
Then she moved out
Didn't get the job I applied for
Had the car on the road for about 6 months out of this year

The only good thing that happened is Carrie moving back in

Hopefully 2005 is going to be loads better, for my brother and sister as well (brother has just had his missus of 2 years sling him, 2 days before his birthday, sister got booted out of her house in the summer)
