    Oh I forgot to tell you all, went to see MIL today and she gave me and Hubby £200 each as she had a big win on the bingo:j :j :j :j

    So far I have bought 100g of Floral Gums:D

    Going to treat us all to something special when we go to London:beer:

    just dont know what as there are so many free things to do:confused:
    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.

    Well I would like some teeth left :D

    There is a shop in Peterlee which has just opened and sells retro sweeties, the shelves are stocked with big jars full of chewy nuts, floral gums, cherry lips, scented satins, sherbert pips............everything you could think of really.
