I just noticed today that I've been registered on PH for 67 months (five and a half years)! Where the hell did those 5+ years go? Anyway, it got me thinking, what has happened in my life in that period:

Went from my 30's to my 40's.
Moved house.
Bought five cars.
Two kids have left school (one kid got into Oxford University)
Wife's mum died.
Started a company in the USA which has grown much quicker than expected.
Hair is MUCH grayer and thinner!
Had a bit of a health scare.

Bought my dream car.
Bought 3 other cars. Sold 4.
Bought a snowscooter. Sold 2.
Mum died.
Bought a moped.
Drank a lot of beer.
All the rest is a blur of partys, work, and general daily drudge, sprinkled with track days, car meets, and summer fun.

ETA - dammit Vixpy. Got fatter too !

In my two years 1 months I have...

Been in a relationship and watched her go to Australia.
Broke up.
Got with a new more fantastic girl smile.
Drove a Lamborghini Gallardo and met many people with them.
I have worked through 8 seasons mainly all outside.
I have stayed with the same job place but switched roles.
I spent my first summer driving a rover 25 (which I love and still have)
and spent my second driving an Alfa.
Started my own photography business, which I am still waiting to take off. Feel free to help me out on that front if you like wink.
Been to exactly 4 PH shows and 2 meets.
Met a bunch of amazing friends smile.

Well that's the story so far so lets see what the next 25months bring.
