    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.

    Pookie - it actually feels as if I am digging myself into a newer, bigger hole.

    Plus I feel so dirty. I'm trying to pretent to people that all is well cos I don't want them to just hang back for the closing sale and stop using me. I don't do lying.

    Sammy be careful of those automated calls asking you for details, they are often not banks at all and just trying to get your details! :eek:

    I can feel the excitement!

    I'm at home today (and the rest of the week) :( going into hospital tomorrow for a small 'procedure' which I'm not looking forward to but hey ho.
    PLUS... I've kept Jess off school today because her face, arms and legs are covered in a very red rash. She feels fine but taking her to see the nurse practitioner at 11.20

    Have a great time at the concert girlies, we want pics!!!
    ...Linda xx

    Hope it all goes OK for you at hospital Linda, and Jess is better soon x

    Becks - are you about? Thanks for Erin's socks, they are perfect!! much appreciated! Her football boots have arrived from Ebay. Plus got her kitted out with some silky shorts and shin pads too (sports direct shop!) so football training tonight will be a good looking affair!

    I know I don't usually contribute to the threads, but I do lurk.

    For the girlies going to TAKE THAT - The trams aren't running through the city centre - you will have to make your way to St Peters Square and get the Altrincham tram which runs to Old Traff. You can get a free bus from outside Picc Station, which stops very close to St Peter's Square - you need the purple number 3 bus:D

    HTH
