    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.

    Hey Spud, dont want to swamp all over your bondy, but its not what it used to be, its pricey and the rides are what they once were. And you have to pay £5 for parking which considering the nearest town is about 500 miles away its a scam. Im never going again as that parking measure really got my back up

    I havent been for years, the last time was before I had DS I think.

    I cant say I agree with being able to buy these tickets that let you queue jump. I didnt know they'd done that with parking, robbing barstewards :rolleyes:

    Blackpool have ruined themselves too. You have to pay just to enter now, you cant just buy the kids a wristband and watch . Wont be going there any more :mad:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

    My papa was a great old man
    I can see him with a shovel in his hand
    See, education he never had
    But he did wonders when the time got bad
    A little money     from the crops he raised
    Barely paid the bills we made
    Oh life had kicked him down to the plow
    When he tried to get up life would kick him back down
