Thankyou guys, Your kind words are very encouraging.
These stories I am putting up have happened over the last 6 years, while I have been in Australia.
I have been married for 3 of these years to my beautiful wife and we have a child due in 5 weeks now.
Couldn't be happier, It seems if you do take a chance thing can pay off. You just have to take the path less travelled which may be a harder journey but the rewards are so much greater.
That is why we are all on this site as we have all answered the call of that challenge.
Cheers
Mark.
