    I take the older ones into work for the staff room.

    I buy them because I get the same thrill from reading them as I used to get from actually shopping and spending a few hundred quid that I didn't have.

    The subscription ones are £12 a year plus the lovely gift that you get for subscribing which is a small vice.
    I don't smoke, rarely drink, rarely go out so I'll keep my nasty magazine habit

    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.

    Maybe we should organise a RW rota/time share so each of us buys once or twice a year and send them round everyone...:money:
