Simon, I can see why you would want to move to cyprus, where there is lots of sunshine and newness... a good way to begin restoration.

it is most difficult to be facing the what ifs in our lives.. the lost loves.. yo are right.. a new start might be just the thing. i hope you can do it soon!

Meanwhile, maybe you should try and do something nice for yourself.. something fun... go out..take your mind off of things for a littl while so you can rest.

We all need a little down time now and then. You work on YOU and let your dad work on him.. maybe he didn't deal with the other losses as well as it may have seemed and the loss of his beloved pet broke the camels back.

He will have to sort it out for himself. Take Care!
