    I am now the proud owner of Four baby African land snails.

    I am officially insane.

    They are going to live in a fish bowl for a bit till I figure out a permanment living place for them.

    Snaggles, as with my snail buying I am clearly NEVER going to meet another man for as long as I live please share.

    Better buy a big fish tank to house them in, and lots of lettuce and cucumber!

    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.

    Just been to put the scrote's washing away and found:

    1, Maureen perched on the windowsill looking around as if to say "This is nice, I don't believe I've been in here before." (she has - she just doesn't recognise it because it's clean and there's daylight.

    2, more dirty socks under the bed

    3, a pair of underpants behind the radiator :mad:

    4, 2 more plates with mouldy toast crusts

    5, sweaty and muddy P E kit stuffed in his school bag

    Grrrrrrrrrr. :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
