    Divirce, business running bad, no cycling, back problems, ex wife punched me and broke my glasses and now has a non molestation order, access to my children being frustrated, paid off over 20 employees and struggled to make everything I have worked for the last ten years survive the credit crunch.

    Did I forget to mention that terrorism has reared its ugly head here again with two Sappers and a Policeman gunned down by the enemies of Ireland.

    LOL.

    2009 and will go down in my annals as a year to forget (and yes, I do appreciate the irony of that).

    To write it all down would take until NYE next year!

    2010 will get worse, but should end better. If it doesn't, than can I suggest a 2010 NYE suicide club – I know the place and the method (won't hurt a bit).

    Thank **** 2009 is (nearly) over.

    I lost both my Dad (Cancer) and Mum (Dementia) within 18 days of each other.

    The wife lost her only close Auntie in between as well.

    Hurry up 2010, it can't get any worse………

    Absolutely terrible year; highlighted by the fact that at 10.35 on NYE I'm posting on here…(Just an observation about me and not you!)

    I really hope it gets better

    Work wise its been bloody shit, if it gets any worse in 2010 then I'm going to pack in being an Independent Mortgage Advisor and go and work for someone else as it affects every aspect of life.

    Riding wise its been quite good, went fully 29er and am riding better than i have before and enjoying it more. Did an awesome weekend in Afan back in April plus a few enduros which i enjoyed.

    Just hope the work picks up in 2010 as i really don't want to have to go and work for someone else 🙁

    Well, it was better than 2008 but – apart from getting married in May – 2009 wasn't all that great. Lots of bad news happened and it was, on the whole, a bloody tough year. I know 2010 has rough things to come so not looking forward to it so much. I am hoping, at best, for 'mostly uneventful'. That'll do me…

    Gawd, I sound awfully pessimistic. I'm not. Honest.

    Average year. Didn't ride enough, I've got fat, hated my job, been unemployed twice.

    On the plus, I really enjoyed the riding I did I became self employed, and just had some good times.

    This year, I get the fitness back.
