thats the downside,saying that ive done so much call over the years i might as well have been working away,chasing the money is fine at the time,in hindsight i wouldnt do it again

The lure of money and finacial security is a hard thing to pass up, luckily for me I've grown up in a county that pays **** money anyway so the temptation isn't so great lol

I used to work for a void property security company making £800 a week working away in Northern Ireland. Jacked it in after my daughter turned 2 as there was to much threats etc entering different areas and the things I saw were brutal. 

Its funny how your life changes when you have a family.
