    Hubby had Endone prescribed for the first time after he fell and cracked ribs.
    Had an anaphalactic reaction and stopped breathing.
    Took a team of doctors to revive him.
    The part we got right was that we were still in Emergency when he suffered the reaction.
    So now he gets another birthday on 15th November....

    On a Capital and Income Growth Safari
    Paying closer attention to the discussion in the Peter Thornhill thread and then attending the course two weeks ago. That together with watching the videos at Video:Bogleheads® investment philosophy - Bogleheads has given me a clear approach and strategy for my Share and Superannuation investments. Certainly gives me much greater control of the income and capital generated.

    Also hats off to the numerous members sharing their development stories here. The knowledge gained from those threads, in particular the feasos will be invaluable.

    Ah that's nothing.

    I need to do something big this year. Real big. That way if a similar thread comes up next year I'll be ready for it.

    And thankyou to you and @trinity168 for getting me to look into it! And thanks to everybody in the Peter Thornhill and LICs thread. :)
    Time to go into the dark side... Ps. Now my dad is now worried I'm "gambling" on shares... I need to educate him.

    Got consistent with training for most of the year, longest run ever.
    The only way this was possible for me was to commit to training sessions with a trainer.
    Also got onto a Masters sprint coach from the US I do Skype training sessions with.
    Plan to be compete sometime next year when I'm well and truly "retired".
