Hello from the other side, i must have tried a thousand times.

....to make cash online, anyway here I am, I have arrived, I’m sorry that I’m late, I shall endeavour to make up for lost time!

To give you a little background about myself, I’m going to list a couple of my weak points but more importantly, a few strengths, so if you follow me, you’ll know which buttons to press!

Money management has never been a friend to me, ok maybe it was for a couple of years when I was young and had no outgoings, however, since those many moons ago, it’s been pants ever since.

I’m not a social butterfly. Push or pull me into a social gathering and I’ll be the one stood at the fire exit with my back against the exit bar ready or hoping for it to swing open, I’m ok on a one to one, but in a group, you might as well wave bye-bye to me there and then.

Anyway, enough of the negativity and onto the positives, I would like to think that I’ve been blessed with a little creative grey matter, and once I engage it into gear, I’m off, I want to inspire, I want to ignite ideas, for others to feed off, I want it to be contagious and outrageous if it means that people will sit up and take notice.

It’s funny, I’m 49 now and I feel mentally liberated since joining here, and that’s the first time in 40 years, when I think back to being a high flying 9 year old, acing the best grades, thriving on teachers praise, it was abruptly and cruelly halted when I made the wrong choice to pal up with some not so great ‘friends’., within a year I’d gone from being a 90% A student to a 40-50% average joe kid. I can pinpoint it down to one of my ‘friends’ who virtually single-handed my smothered my flair and ability and shoved it into a box and taped it shut. I’m not ashamed to say that I’m sat here, in the comfort of being behind a 5”x3” glass screen, and can feel a little salty water welling at the bottom of my eyes, which to me feels like a happy tear or two, as I feel I’m about to embark on a fantastic new experience, and I can, once and for all, burst out of that tapedbox, and express some good feelings that I want to share and experience with a new and extended family in the shape of WA.

Best wishes and thankyou for reading

Heyday
