    Hi all...thanks for the concern.
    Dragon...yes you can do.
    Haven't been about on here as I can't be bothered at the moment..just feeling fed up I guess..don't know what it is really but need to snap out of it.

    Hiya taxi. Sorry you are feeling a bit down. Hope it doesn't last long. Is it snowy up there?

    Cheer up Taxi - don't like to hear you feeling low. You've had a tough spell and kept ploughing through - sounds like its catching up. Sending some positive thinking vibes along with a virtual hug and chocolate.

    I think after a busy year- it hits us all like that. I agree about the choices, but you know one of the things i would always do whether i have money or not...is curl up in the corner with a good book. You can't beat the simple things in life :)
