DaB35, firstly re house prices always imagined you living merseyside ish, dont know why and a v. quick skim of your posts yields nothing.

Next, 2x4s, read that last post again. I don't give a s£€$ about your ex wife, that is yesterdays news. I now follow your thread now to learn of your continued growth. I know you are only 12 ish months in but really the first half of that post is newcomer c£€$.

You are better than this and better than her. Detach.
Keep strong and live for now.
