      @neph93 Thanks I will look that up.
      @Max Power Yes my daughter helps us a lot to go on with everyday life and such. She has such a simple childish way of dealing with it, it's great. One minute she's crying because of her sister and five seconds later she's laughing while playing with her toys. Not that easy for us,  but sometimes I wish I could handle it as she does. I'm trying to go on with everyday life and playing with her like we did before it happened and I guess it works well at the moment. Today I went swimming with her. It was great, but… a lot of baby's there. But I want to confront myself with that, and I'm thinking about it a lot because I don't want to distract myself from what happened. I guess that's the only way to really get over it. I could bury myself in work or something , but I think that it would come back heavier one day then. It's a struggle between everyday life and confronting yourself as much as you can with what happened.
      Time heals all wounds I guess.

      @BloodnThunder I'm sorry for you too and thanks for your offer. Yes, I hope we get all over it together. I hope you got over it together too. We're a good team and we've been together since 12 years now, back then we were 17yo. We talk about it everyday honestly ,  and we are writing it down everyday. We talked about therapy but at the moment we both think we won't need it. Maybe we want to meet with other parents who went through this tell too, there are groups near us.

      Wishing you all the best,
      Kevin

        In anticipation of a major house-full over the 10 year anny party weekend, @Madame Buttonfly is making me go through stuff and do a major clean-up.  I found this in one of my bedroom drawers, it brought a tear to my eye.  Paula reckons it's from when @Alex  was about 7 or 8.  Given that his hand-writing has not improved much since then, it could have been from last year… 😉 😉 😉

                        I asked @Kurt-faith to see if he could get me one of these.  Made in Taiwan, monster drag reel (it pulls 32kg).  He got the first one ever made and then gave it me as a birthday present.  I will be having a severe chat with him later today, I can't ask him for a favour and then have him doing that…....Mind you, @Madame Buttonfly  admitted this morning that she had not got me anything, so maybe she can buy it off Kurt…. 🙂 🙂 🙂

                            @Giles X2 on what Matty said.  I bet it is smooth as silk and spins like a top….

                            Any ideas where you are going to break it in?

                                    @Matty123 Yes I have.  I have no first-hand experience, but have heard that since they were bought out by Zebco, quality suffered,
