    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.

    Bacon sandwich.

    I need to mark, but I also need to sort out Avon.

    truthfully a shower and some clothes might be the best option.

    but perhaps another Cup of tea................

    I'm in a bit of an Avon dilemma at the moment.

    There's a young girl who's started doing Avon round here and I do buy from them fairly regularly.

    Before Christmas I placed a £30 order and she always brings the catalogues every week now.

    Problem is, I'm torn between ordering through her (I know what it was like as a Body Shop at home person) or ordering through the website and Quidco for 15% cash back and faster delivery.

    Its hard, I mean I have been known to order stuff for Mum from the website direct cos the reps orders are late or incomplete, to be honest I don't why I do it still. I have probably lost money over the years.

    I 'd go through quidco and perhaps order one thing off her?
