    Thanks Linda, that's fab. I love Christmas markets. So romantic. Bit crap going on your own mind you, but I can dream!

    I love Christmas markets Snaggs if you want to meet up there, how about next weekend?

    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.

    ...even better than the wine beanie - Griffith Park sparkling Rose is absolutely delicious, tastes far more expensive and is only £6.99 at Tesco

    It's scrummy and it's £5 in Morrisons and Asda at the moment!:j
    Good wine needs to breathe, if it stops breathing try mouth to mouth.

    it's the Victorian Christmas market near us the second week in December. I always go there and get mulled wine, hot roasted chestnuts and I come out feeling all Christmassy!

    That would be fab if you fancy it - I work till 3pm on Saturdays, so either after that, or Sunday might be better? I haven't got the kids, so I will be able to look round more easily.

    Actually, I'm going out on Saturday night too (but not to get drunk), so it would have to be Sunday for me, if you are free then?
