Crossing over from the second to the third millennium co-incided with a major a life change for me. My wife went off with the guy next door, really!
After 26 years married to my childhood sweetheart I was facing up to life on my own. But I soon realised that I was not on my own; my two sons, mum and dad, sister and brother-in-law, and good friends, showed me such love and support.
For a time I was in danger of losing control but at the times of my lowest ebb I began to find the sense of wonder and adventure in me that had lain dormant for some years.
Then I met the lady who was to become my second wife. A lady who had been on a similar journey but a few years ahead of me. As we grew closer we found that we could enjoy life together, exploring the places and emotions we had once thought were gone forever.
Now married for nearly 18 months, Jen and I are charting courses I would never have thought possible only a few short years ago.
