I always knew that there'd be a final post to this blog. And this is it. I'd thought about what I'd say, but now I can't think of anything - isn't that always the way?

I won't go into details, but today my bollocks have been (metaphorically) grabbed and twisted. I've been made to think about things I don't think about, and been made to think in ways I am unaccustomed to thinking in, and there have been some tears.

But the conclusion of the bollock-twisting is that I need to stop writing in here. It just makes me internalise my thoughts, and I'm not talking to "real people" as much as I should be. I think this blog has been coming to an end for a while really.

Thank you to OAO - your words of wisdom, your advice, your different point of view - it's all been very helpful, and has helped to get me on (and keep me on!) a relatively straight and narrow path.

Thank you to the IWAA lady - your friendship and kindess have cheered me up immensely.

Thank you to everyone who has ever supported me or challenged me on here. I might come back here once in a while, and I might drop one or two of you a line every now and then. But, for now, this is goodbye.

It's been crazy, but it's been good :)
