    Spud, you okay! I have been for a run went quite fast (lost runchum and had to go back and look for her....was quite funny) glorious here so going to have a shower and sit and sunbathe in the garden whilst studying....

    Not sure tbh hun, still really sore :o

    DD did 10k this morning, still insists she wants to do the race with me. DH doesnt want her to stay for 2 hours while I do it, so dont have much choice :rolleyes:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    oooh, spud, take it easy :(

    PC is all better :D Seems 4 years of the fan gathering dust was the problem and it had just given up. I brandished a screwdriver, removed the side, cleaned it out and hey presto.

    And lost a screw :rolleyes:
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    Great, the f*cking hamster escaped and it's in the wall cavity of the house.... or it was at 2am this morning.

    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.

    god, there should be a 'pre-beginner' level on the wii fit. I stopped after 11 minutes of the beginner levels of a few different games and after a shower and an hour of sitting here, I am really aching :rotfl: I did the first jog of 3 minutes within that 11 minutes - it was torture :o

    Good afternnon friends!

    Did carboot this morning, made about £40 and got sunburn in the process-glorious day here but now inside because of crispy appendages!

    Good luck with bet Len-I did one of those things once thru Quidco and still don't know how I did...gambling goes right over my head!

    BB-so glad you are enjoying the Wii! It's about time you got something from OH that brings you happiness.

    Inky-well done on date! Whoop!

    Maz ran race, and did very well!

    Snags, have fun running-I will be doing 5 k later once DH gets home from work.
