How much has 2018 sucked ar$e??

Seems a good number of us on this forum have had major life dramas going on this year.

Let’s hope next year is just sunny days, motorbike rides and cake.

I was going to write something profound but hugs and sympathies seem more appropriate.

I'm sure you've done the right things for her given as you say mental health support in the UK is mainly broken.

I hope she's ok and yesterday was the first day of the spiral upwards.

Stay strong matey. If you need us.... ... (groupdrink)

It's a piss poor system unfortunately.

I'm really sorry to hear that about your wife though, please let us know if there's anything we can do (y) I can't imagine how it must feel for you to have done that.

Sorry to hear this Monty. Hopefully now Sarah can get the treatment she needs and her recovery starts today.

Good to hear you have plenty of friends and family around as support for you also is important. I'm not a million miles away if you need help with anything please just ask.

It is!! It’s a far way south from me mate, and right on Bass Strait which has notorious weather. The time I went down I spent the whole weekend in my one piece wet weather suit.

It’s cooling down again tomorrow where I am.

It's amazing how much the weather can vary over the country. In Weymouth it cold, but perfect clear blue skys.Image

Drivers and their phones. Saw a 2 year old Range Rover Sport driving along with their owner with his phone glued between his shoulder and ear whilst driving in the motorway. Don't tell me that a Range Rover doesn't have Bluetooth!

Clients who have no concept of time or the fact that I am not here to serve them 24/7. Just last night I had 2 post 9pm calls attempted, this morning a 6am text asking me to go see them on a Saturday and another pre 9am call. I wouldn't mind if they were shift workers but they are all people in fairly standard jobs and I just feel like they should have a bit more courtesy.

Switch your phone off outside office hours. they will soon learn.

One of my clients had someone ring up at 10am on Christmas morning to book an appointment for a manicure the next week.

Wish it was that easy but its my personal phone too, plus they are persistent, I ignored a couple of calls and messages so they found me through facebook and started messaging me through that!

Xmas Morning is utterly insane! whats worng with people?!
