In 2009 I attended Broadway Lodge, a treatment centre / rehab, where I was a resident for 6 months , I completed both primary and secondary.
Broadway Lodge, based in Weston Super Mare follows a 12 step programme. As a resident there I also attended 12 step meetings in Weston.
Broadway Lodge treats a range of conditions including; metal health, alcoholism, drug, gambling, and sex addiction. When I left Broadway Lodge the first person in the UK was being admitted for gaming addiction.
After completing primary and secondary I moved to Bristol where I continued attending 12 step meetings and, over time, became a qualified counsellor. Whilst training to be a counsellor at the University of the West of England, Bristol I also met my wife Jules.
As Broadway Lodge has been a critical element in my own recovery I have decided to raise money for them by running three races in 2018. I will be doing the Bristol Half in September, The York Marathon in October and the Bath Hilly Half in November.
I will post more information on fund raising in the the early part of next year when I begin training.

Good on ya, @den1mhead. You always find worthy causes to raise money for, but this one is personal, which makes it even more special.

Ok, here is a first, and thought other people who have been in similar situation would find it funny….
So last week, one of the very well dressed Norwegian gentlemen on the forum requested my help to proxy a pair of ski boots from the US for him. Anytime I can help someone out and deceive the government (customs) at the same time, I am 100% game, so I quickly obliged.
Anyways, the Boots were supposed to arrive tomorrow, but arrived today in a menagerie of boxes filled with xmas gifts for the twins that we ordered on Cyber monday, so I didn't even notice they arrived early (and never even second guessed the fact that I had to sign for what I thought was $30 worth of kids puzzles). Anyways, I am at work and my wife calls me furious, and says "Adam, Why the F*** did you buy $XXX Ski Boots for??, you don't even Ski!"
I then explained the scenario to her and she quickly accepted by explanation...almost too easily mind you. So note to self, when you proxy something for someone - either explain the scenario to your wife BEFORE the fact, or be more proactive about hiding the box when it arrives.
Also, anyone had advice on how to trick norwegian customs about a pair of 12 pound ski boots... haha

I have my first job interview in nearly 10 years here in 30 Minutes. Could mean a life changing career tweak. Since I’m usually the one doing the interviewing, this could be rather difficult lol [emoji23]
