It was at this exact moment that my daughter gave birth to my first ever grandchild, a little girl. The most amazing thing to happen to me in almost a year was born five weeks early by caesarian section...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/595590I haven’t written for a while. It hasn’t been a good idea to try. I desperately wanted to but the writing would have been so depressing and awful that I thought it would be best to not even try. But I have missed it. Missed the flow of words, missed so much enjoyment pretty much missed out on so...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/593168Today has been a very difficult day for me to get through. During all these months of pain I have been going through I have always been able to think of one man and feel that things would all turn out right in the end. This man was the biggest influence on my life. He pulled me back from...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/592986Over the last couple of days the English press have been going on about a new government measure, which is part of the Welfare Reform Bill.

And the thing is it is just one word that has made me feel...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/592253People who have read my blog will recall me writing before about my (ex) wife. Well it was April twenty-fourth when she walked out on my children and me, leaving without saying a word, to start a new life. However a strange turn of events happened on January fifteenth when I received a call to...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/590765After all the months of troubles and turmoil that I have previously written about, finally, I have found the ideal way to let myself relax and laugh again. This is all down to the writings of the great, yet sorely missed, Spike Milligan. Whenever I have wanted to lose myself in a book I have...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/587331Thanks to the behaviour of my son, which I have wrote about before, and the combined brainpower of the local Social Services department I have been put in a position that no parent should ever have to face. On January 13th I have to attend a child protection conference, where I may have to choose...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/586417It is thanks to this site and the people that read my blogs that I feel that I have almost got the hardest year of my life out of the way. So many things have gone wrong this year that I will be honest and admit that I didn't think I would make it this far. Yet with my writing and the inspiration...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/585446The following is a true account of my fourteen year olds crimes, punishments and the answers I received off Social Services. Crime 1: Common assault- This resulted in a six month young offender program. Before the six months was over came crime 2. Crime 2: Shoplifting and witness intimidation-...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/GALACTUS_9877/584228Something funny happened to me today.
