    Just catching up. But I second, third and fourth nominating yourself.

    If I had nominated myself at the bottom of my list (worth 1 point) when we were voting for Head Girls/Boys and Deputies when we were in 6th form, I would have been a deputy head.

    Long time ago, but just shows that you should have confidence in yourself.

    Boo to the squirrel - I have snail problems - they have nibbled on my mini watermelon seedings - brought them inside now and hope they will survive.

    Fantastic - well done :T:T:T:T
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
