    ***** sending positive thoughts to PAP *****

    ...Linda xx
    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.

  • @ pap - Lots of positive thoughts from here too.

    I've put the heating on. :o In my defence, it's to dry clothes and it's cheaper than the dryer.

    Hugs and positive vibes from me too Pap.

    Good times here - I came to my senses about the furniture and got a glass of wine instead. Today's random freezer meat turned out to be fillet steak, and I've just got off the phone to dad. I told him I'll be looking to buy a new tv in December/January, and he said he'll let me know what's coming up in the sales (he works for Currys and has insider info). So with his discount as well I should be able to get something.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Oh, Sally, I'll try and take a pic of the stamp for you and make sure it's what you want, if it is then it's yours.

    Linda, I should be ok and have everything done by next weekend, but I'll bear you in mind! Thanks for offering.
