Part 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!

 The story starts below.

 So the story was unwinding and I knew in the back of my mind that it was going to lead me somewhere different and it sure did, but it took time to unwind.

I never told you this but keep it under your hat. My wife worked in the inland revenue and that time when you were getting loads of tax demands it was her that put a stop to it all. What is happening in the revenue and it is a big secret. Some branches have declared war on the general public. If you can't fight them they will fleece you. The truth is stranger than fiction.

So now we were turning a page in the story. He had met a Phillopena nurse while he was working and they met again. She was super and they had coffee together. As they talked he found out how much rent she was paying and he had 2 empty bedrooms in his house.So she and her little boy moved into his house.

When his daughter found out she went to the house and threw all her belongings out into the rain. Luckily a neighbor rang the brothers who came over and gave her a few punches and brought everything back in.

This prompted the removal of all the daughters things to a storage depot, paid for a month and then to be discarded unless she paid the storage herself. Locks were changed that day.

Well one thing lead to another and we started sharing a bed together. 

Such peace she brought such happiness to my life you would not believe.

Now the reason I called you over was to ask if you will come over on Monday week to be  a witness at our wedding. The paperwork is complete and I want you to be there as being my oldest friend.

She will be here in 10 minutes. She arrived all smiles and she brought wonderful energy to the house. 

The boys worked on their sister now blocked from the house and just after the service started on the Monday she came into the registry office to great joy and warm hugs. 

Then off to the Red Cow inn for a great meal. 

They really adore each other and the boys treat the little boy like a wonderful playful brother. 

The daughter was treated as the special one growing up and she took and took not thinking that she was not entitled to what she got, that is often the way, now she is coming around slowly.

 I don't suppose the blog will write itself, perhaps AI will do it for me.

There is a story about a footballer who broke his leg and his team won the cup. He was devastated and a guy he knew who had a market stall took him under his wing. He trained him how to sell things and then took him to the family chateau in the South of France, The chateau was bought by the family after the war and seeing how the house was so large the family could come and go. They re booted his mind and his financial journey has made him the 8th richest man in the UK.

So Just spotting the opportunity can make or break you. One guy told me that if he was staring his life again  he would become a taxi driver. Look you meet interesting people and you can work any hours you want. One simple idea that you overhear can make you a fortune.

That man became a friend for the next 10 years his name was Chuck Feeney who founded duty free shopping and he gave away 8 billion dollars to help his fellow man. 

My son is driving the taxi now and today I took a walk into town, things are bad. Beggars on every street corner and plenty of drug fueled pedestrians going around. Not as bad as the streets of Philadelphia on YouTube but where America goes Europe follows. Shops are closed down all over the place as well. I spoke to a Polish lady who has lived here for 20 years, they rented a home all this time and there is a rent review in December. She is stressed as the rent will go up. A Chinese guy bought his own house last year and the mortgage repayments are now only one third of what his rent was when he was renting Wow.

So a story which is so long that it comes to you in 2 parts. Tom a friend of mine from Crumlin  rang me around 6 weeks ago and he asked me to come over to his house. He is a taxi driver and he says that he will never retire. He sat me down with a mug of tea and he started his tale of woe. His wife had died around 2 years ago. She had retired from her job and they had planned to take a cruise to the Caribbean to celebrate. But just as they were about his wife died of a heart attack. No warning and no pain.

He had 3 kids 2 boys and a girl all settled now, but as he went through their bank accounts a secret that his wife had kept from him came to light. Their bank account was paying their daughter €150 per week and when he blocked it it caused a huge rift within the household. The boys has worked at trades electrician and a plumber. They paid rent when they lived at home and this money was put aside for their house deposits when they moved out. Mary the daughter never paid a penny and now this €150 per week was causing him pain. They had also paid for her wedding, he was shaking.
