    Where would be the closest hotel Sammy? Might as well start checking prices early ;)
    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:

    Yes, I reckon they would if they were in a secure enough container

    Good evening all... :o hope no one minds if I don't do personals, I am so tired and heading bedwards soon but I am just overwhelmed at you guys... I wish there was DFW village so I could chat to you all in person :)

    Toto - I am not going to quote your post in case you don't want it around forever but I am touched by how much you share, you are an amazing writer and agree with the others that you should get published. Life can be cruel. I don't know what to say other than it is just sh*t that you ever had to go through any of it and how you come across as so level-headed is beyond me, you have grace and composure and those are things I only aspire too.
    SRM, Ames, Skinty, jinky, scaredy, luc, pap, BB, Buffy, Bookie, whatatwit, sammy and scorgeous - and well done on the 10k! :T a massive achievement and nothing if not inspiring in this heat - and little Chloe of course :D ... Bunny, BOS, oh my good so many people have taken the time to wish me well - I LOVE this place. And I love the mix there is here, I NEVER only want to talk to people with kids, or people interested in that that or the other, or people nearby, I just wish I knew most of you better. Thank you all for just being who you are and being here and having hearts of gold. There are an abudance of usernames beginning in B and S, y'know...

    I am going to stop the epic posts now :o my sig says it all... I can't change what happened so I have to move on... I WILL go to the docs though, I feel optimistic right now but it can crash down so easily... enough misery :o

    Toto/BB I've just had my first box from Abel & Cole with that offer, quite pricey for what you get but the proof is in the eating and it was all lovely so I am ordering again, fruit veg meat and milk :eek: I was unimpressed with the mud on everything but that's me being naive :o oh and a medium box would not last us the week or even half but a nice treat for the weekend then back to supermarket basics in the week...

    Oh and running - Snaggles that's amazing that you have inspired Ryan, there'll be a new generation of runners in the DFW juniors! :) If I complete the Race for Life that WILL be an achievement because when I ran first time around I was quite shy and never got round to entering anything :confused: so doing it AND telling everyone... that will mean something to me, but it's okay that it doesn't change anyone else's life ;) though who was it on here (sorry, sorry) that said maybe someone entering next year would see their time and think, well if they did it so can I... goes a long way, I think.

    admittedly they were smaller than Buffy's snails but they are everywhere! must start eating the blighters...(not the squashed ones:p)

    Maz, you can fly BMI from Glasgow on 20th and come back on 22nd and it's about £43... not that I was thinking about it...

    Thanks babes...
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
