Finally my marriage is beginning to come to an end. My wife and I sat down today and have decided to split after nearly thirteen years of marriage. Our marriage has been in a steady slow decline since the birth of our second son Thomas in 2000. Our marriage should have ended three years ago but for my reluctance to accept the inevitable. Finally both of us will be looking forward to move on and enjoy life to it's fullest once more. In the mean time we will be staying together to finish restoring our Victorian villa before we put it up for sale hopefully in the next couple of months. I would like to thank anyone that I have spoken to regarding our impending breakup on CT over the past six weeks, and whom have shown their kind support to me. I am feeling positive that I will be able to start a new life after my forthcoming separation and divorce. For the foreseeable future we will both take turns at looking after our children once we have separated.
