    Last 4 years:

    Despair and tears that were making me weep
    Drifting through life but then it got deep
    Because along came twins
    Who constantly cry for their sins
    And now there's no beers and no sleep !

    So....

    collectively in four years we've lost freedoms, marriages, loved ones, jobs, houses, gall bladders, testicles, stools, pets, waistlines and hernias.

    A nice list !

    In order of importance, not when they happened:

    Mother died unexpectedly - still dealing with the consequences
    Celebrated my Silver Wedding anniversary
    50th Birthday - what a party that was!
    Saw my oldest son graduate
    Had 2 jobs, last one finished June 2009 - now trying to start up my own business as people who are 50+ don't get job offers
    Continue to play in a fantastic rock band, despite the advancing years
    Continued to be a season ticket holder and to go to the occasional away game
    Bought my dream car and have enjoyed it, but probably can't afford to keep it
    Haven't slept with any Charlton Lifers, but there's still time!
