    So you think you're a Romeo, playing a part in a picture show?

    In all honesty, this is something we can all relate to, we're all avoiding something that we should really be stepping up and taking responsibility for.

    For me, it's probably a general admission that I'm an adult, in my mind I'm still a teenager and all those complexities that come with being older are still a long way down the line.

    So when you look through the years to see what you might have been, what you could have been, what do you see?

    I see 15stone of awesome...


    Who in hindsight of things wished he never had followed his father into the construction and forged my own path.

    And now after 17 years of hard physical work, my back is so messed up I've to change jobs and at 34 I've no idea what to do.

    So am I the man I thought I'd be? Well I thought I'd be a millionaire for starters, so no.

    But I am good father to two beautiful girls, I'm a good brother / son and I'm a good friend. These are the things that truly matter to me.

    Did I miss the point of the thread?

    Na, well kinda, but in a good way my friend:)

    Some things are important, and some things aren't all that important, but you seem to have them sorted out the right way round.

    I was about to type in a serious answer about how I hate driving on the m50 so a lot of the time try to avoid it by taking a longer route.
    But am so glad I read the previous posts....coz that would have been a stupid thing to post....
