James,

Excellent news and well deserved.

Those of us who have been aware of how this all started fully understand where the mental health issues may well have come from.

The way you have turned things around is a real credit to your strength of character and serves as an inspiration to us all.

All the best with the social work department, with your determination and strength of character you are a valuble asset to the work force.

Good luck.

Gareth

I hope things continue to go well for you, James.

I don't know who said it , but a favourite quote of mine, especially after a bad patch is, 'What does not destroy me, makes me stronger'.

I hope this is true for you. Look after yourself.

I'm so glad to hear things are going well for you and i hope things go on to improve more.

I was only thinking about you the other day, and wondering how things were going. I was going to PM Andrew to see if he had heard from you.But i don't need to now. :)

Good to hear from you, keep us posted :D

James, really pleased the rejection has cleared up and I too have experience of mental health problems, when I was younger it often nose dived when my sight deteriorated. Please feel free to chat anytime.

Welcome back

James

Waling with a white stick is quite an adventure, but once you get a handle on it you will have much reduced the danger of jarring your back on an unexpected step down, or tripping over an unanticipated step up.
