I came across your blog this lunchtime whilst trying to learn a bit more about the whole thing with DA.
I was vaguely aware of your story and felt a bit of a voyeur when I started reading it.
However I found it a truly inspirational read.
Best of luck for the future. more…

You may have read my notes of disgust on blades message boards, regarding your plight, and then subsequently the loads of responses from blades wishing you well, and wishing you luck in fighting the demons that were running your club.
Glad its all sorted, and that if not at an end, the light shines bright at the end of the tunnel.
