ShaggyWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

Morning all well done to T2GU for upping my scores over the 72 hour challenge - that wasn't so bad was it? Not too painful. 72 hours also means all the immediate nasty toxins etc are out of our lovely systems (I think, someone correct me if I am wrong!). Hurrah

Hello all
I haven't been posting but I have been lurking and keeping myself up to date although it's hard the rate this thread moves.
I didn't officially put myself down for the 72 hour challenge (didn't think I could do it to be honest) but I've done it :j AF Monday Tuesday and Wednesday! So fay that's 3 more for me please.
Must do some work now though I'd far rather read the posts I've missed.0
