That was it!

... children with two grandchildren and another on the way, and a wife who I thought loved me up until tonight. Okay things hadn't been brilliant for the last 18 months or more, but I still thought we were okay. Just a bump in the road of marriage.

But now with the disrespect and humiliation plus leaving me outside for 12 minutes whilst she cozied up to Richard tipped me over the edge. Now was the time to seriously think about where we were going as a couple. But I had a problem. I love this house. I had built it. I had laid every brick with my own hands. I had improved grandad Phillips Rover and kept it running and used it at least once a week, she was getting neither of them.

Unfortunately, that's not always the way it works. Although the house was in my name, she had lived here for nearly 40 years. I'm sure some lawyers would argue she had a right to half the house. I would have to get my solicitor to check what might happen. I had a rough idea of how much it was worth, and if we had to split 50/50 I think there was enough in the savings for me to buy her out. I would be broke, but I would have my house. The car was mine; she was not touching that as much as she loved it. Probably because our Stephen was conceived on the back seat.

He used bricklaying to take his mind off the problems of the war for a while. I soon became a bricklayer full time and by now I was very good at it. But unlike most of my mates, I didn't piss it all up against the wall. okay, some of it went there but a lot went into savings.

Then a few things happened. When grandad Phillips had to stop driving, he gave me his Rover 3500 P6, one of the last ones off the production line. Grandad had it from new, I loved that car. He made me promise to keep it running and to use it, not just put it in a garage. I did. Beige with a brown vinyl roof, it looks fantastic.

Being in the business I decided it was a good idea to build my own house. I had mates who could do the electrics, woodwork, plumbing and the roofing. I just had to do the brick laying. I found a plot of land, put the deposit down, and got a mortgage. I approached the company architect. I told him I wanted some plans for a house. He said he could have let me have any of those of the houses we were currently building. I told him I wanted something different. I wanted to start small with the intention of expanding, putting on extensions when I could afford it or as the need arose.

I didn't know how many bedrooms or what I would need. I expected it to be no more than four bedrooms but start off ...
