High point - Buying a house in Scotland
Low point - taking all of our stuff there in an F reg diesel Luton van with 242,000 miles on the clock and the thing only did 55mph flat out! I suffered 500 miles there and 500 miles back in one weekend with my dog. NEVER to be repeated!

Highs: Getting a chance to move country. Meeting Ellie
Lows: Losing my grandfather, missing my friends, selling the blackbeast, getting hurt by someone I really loved.
Can anyone say the word rollercoaster? think that explains the year I have had. Regrets, hmm, maybe, but hey, that's life, you just gotta roll with the punches and move on, no matter what cards life deals you, as Franky said...
Cards for sorrow, cards for pain...

High points: Not a lot, although perhaps making things work with the g/f, & finishing my dissertation last week. And buying my scoob
Low points: Losing my grandfather at the end of November, & having some form of depression, which is gradually going away...
At the moment, just looking forward to having a bit more routine in life once I get a job, hopefully around september, after a good few holidays in Canada and Iceland.
