Rough patches are awful, soul sucking situations, we often have absolutely no control over. Thrust into having to deal with everything from awful jobs, redundancy or debt, through to illness, loss, grief or, worst of all, the dreaded unruly teenager!
 
My 'Farewell rough patch. Please feel free to f** thyself on the way out' card is a colourful way of wishing one of these terrible periods in time, a very fond farewell.
