Happy New Year, everyone. This past year of forum involvement has been, with no shadow of exaggeration, a real boon for me. Everyone, from the IHUK crew to you fine people here, have been a breath of fresh air. Looking forward to a better 2022!

Finally listening to the second season podcast. Congratulations to all the Padmores: to Alex for his rightful succession in running the business, and to G&P for having built it and for quasi-retirement. What amazing news!

@mclaincausey Thank you!

I notice that the random rants is approx 8x longer. I suppose that fits into the old adage that a satisfied customer tells 1 person and a dissatisfied tells 10. I dunno. As I get older I’m trying to be less crabby and impatient with the world. What do you say we catch this thread up. I am sending positive vibes out to you all.

I’ve been on heavy parental duties recently, just through quirks of timing. Wife has had a few weekends away seeing friends, and a few evening work arrangements (jollies). Coupled with illness and taking the odd day to look after sick kids, I’ve been busy.
I’m not one of those dads that considers looking after their own kids as “babysitting” for the wife. It’s my responsibility as much as it is hers. But I think anyone that has kids can sometimes be guilty of mentally calculating your own free time against your partners’, and sometimes it doesn’t swing in your favour.
Anyway, we were driving to the park after school when my wife pulls up outside the craft beer pub and tells me to get out, and that she’ll pick me up in a couple of hours. Lovely surprise and it’s nice to feel that she’s appreciated the extra man hours I’ve been putting in. Or maybe the sunken eyes and haggard face was just screaming “I need a break”…
