    When did Ann Diamond show off her Growler?:eek:

    Just had an on the spot visit from My Mum, she was puzzled as to why the front door was locked :o:D She ended up knocking on the living room window.

    1 hour earlier she would not have got an answer either:cool: ...........shameful daugher that I am.

    Hi By the way.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    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.
