    Wow, that's gorgeous Scaredy. Only says they 'may' take pets, which probably means Mrs Spud, dont you dare bring that dog here :rolleyes:

    I think I'm going to start saving just a bit where I can towwards going somewhere next year. We've never had a family holiday, and need to so something before the kids are too old to want to come with us.

    Spud, same with mine. My sister came round the other week to help tidy it and walked straight back out saying it was too bad.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    I've always fancied going to Cornwall. We usually just have day trips out round North Wales.

    But bad is more rewarding. It looks so much better with just the minimal amount of effort...

    What is it with cleaning today?
    I've cleared out 'THAT' cupboard under the stairs
    and Vanish Powerfoamed the living room carpet,
    cleared out the old magazines and....
    pressure washed the patio.
    I had an overwhelming urge to clean today.

    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.
