    BB, the chair incident was so funny. One minute Sammy was there, the next minute, her feet are in the air, and she's on the floor :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I didnt even get inside the Retro bar. By the time we walked from the restaurant, you were all coming out :rolleyes:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Retro was a weird place. A spit and sawdust pub with a load of students in looking like they were at a New Wave/Punk/goth fancy dress party! I guess they dress like that all the time if the pub is called Retro, but the Girls Aloud music kind of dampened the cool ness of their image!

    Here we go - apologies, it was dark where we sat

    OMG BB crop that first photo :eek:

    I'm sure I've been in the Retro Bar before, many years ago. I think it used to be the Swining Sporran, and it was a bit 'spit and sawdust' then, but OK for a beer and bowl of chips ;)

    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.
