    Where in Toronto is she moving BB? and what school is your neice going to?

    (My Mom taught in inner-city TO for many years and I went to public and high school in Toronto)

    Don't know yet Bun. I'm just hearing dribs and drabs at the minute.

    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.

    nope Bun. Don't know anything else yet, other than my Mum emailing me earlier. Thinking about it, I don't even know what she will do with her house, sell it or rent it out perhaps. It is all a bit 'breaking news' to me at the moment!

    Still scope for a future cheapy holiday there then!

    Having a break from putting a filing cabinet together. The screws that I'm pulverising are alternating between looking like ex and sister. Very therapeutic. Although some of them have decided to only go halfway in. I'm going to try drilling the holes deeper, just hope I don't go through to the outside!

    Bunny, sounds like you've really got the camping bug! I used to love it as a kid, in fact I'd like to go now.

    I'm having duck leg for tea, whoopsied at £1 for two. Looking forward to it, I love duck.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
