  • Thanks toto, its weird because I was brought up with little/no friends so when I upset someone it tears me up. Even though what I think has upset someone is minor. I am wierd i know :rotfl: I am getting better, but not quick enough :rolleyes:

    Toto,
    I've just read your blog. It is wonderful.

    And was your chocolate cake the one from Costco??

    aww thanks hon :) I'm enjoying writing it although I don't update as regularly as I should.

    The chocolate cake today was these belgian chocolate cupcakes from M&S I did tell Sammy I made them but she was having none of it (I think the packet gave me away :rotfl:)

    I can never leave that place without spending £200 and that's just when I go in for a few bits like loo roll and kitchen roll. I do ok till I get to the fresh food and cake department :)

    I didn't have many friends growing up either Pap, I was a target for bullies. I had a really bad squint which needed 2 surgeries so I spent years with eye patches and nasty NHS glasses until I had the OPs. On top of that I was a nerd, into playing drums/ dancing and studying, I was painfully shy too and grew up with a bullying overbearing grandmother who whipped every shread of confidence out of me.

    But I do ok now :) Once you start to believe in yourself other people tend to follow. Now I'm blessed with lots of friends and I know that's because I saw the good in me became my own friend first. And if other people don't like who I am, well, it's sad but hard luck really.

    You'll get there too x

    This is the place, assuming that people can get in without needing some kind of a pass I think it's be cool to meet there. Sally knows the area I think so she might know.

    Crikey Toto - that's posh!
