Frankie its a shame but I can only repeat what others have said. You clearly know what works and what doesn't, and if your not able to carry on for whatever reason then I guess you have to make that jump. However you have always maintained that if this line of work didn't work out then you have got something too fall back on with your previous career. The main thing is you've tried what you wanted and you only get one life so well worth trying what you want
Well Rossgo said it perfectly so exactly what Rossgo said.

Really sorry it didn't work out Frankie. Im absolutely gutted for you but sure you have very good reasons and as others say admire your courage and decision to exit stage left as soon as you were sure things were not for you.

Best of luck in what ever your next role is mate.

So sad that something you were so right for hasn't worked out Frankie, good luck with whatever you decide to do instead. D.

Sorry to hear this Frankie, but kudos for knowing it wasn't the fit for you and moving on.

Cheers for the positive vibes guys, you know sometimes when you make life changing choices its tough.
You doubt yourself, then you think all is good, been a funny year this year so far ha ha, but the positives noted down on here is great, all helps in knowing I a, doing what is best for me and my state of mind, health and everything else.

Plus knowing I have a good bunch of mates around, if all all goes tits up I might need a sofa to crash on ;)

Oi, oi, come back! Hey where are you all going ? Lol

There's always a sofa here, but I must warn you the dog sleeps in the same room and he snores.

Our sofa is always free however my boy has had a few accidents in it. It's fine but it smells a bit funky. There is a spare bed but blade is usually in that in his leathers.

Good point, but I keep the nasty ones out. The odd huntsman gets inside, they look big and hairy but they are pretty harmless.

We had a midnight emergency plant shutdown and deluge activation (due to a failure of electronics) last night, so on top of being flat out today trying to get the place up and running we have all only had 4 hrs sleep. Eating lunch at my desk so I can get my TS fix!

Watching my kids fighting (not each other)

My son got to the semi but lost 2-1 to a fighter who won his last bout 10-0.

My daughter is about to fight.

There's always room for you to crash here mate, not that Bristol is really getting away from it all, it's really just down the M4. :D
