    Is it the kind of place you could take a disposable BBQ to the beach for lunch?

    What's 'and everything?'

    I've just got back from picking the kids up and paying my huge bingo winnings into the bank.
    I've kept the game card that I won on, it's stuck to the fridge

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
