    I love Susan Boyle's version of Wild Horses, whenever it's on the radio I want to stop what I'm doing and just listen.

    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.

    for Christmas.

    I love M&S - especially as I have £30 of vouchers from surveys etc.

    I'm off to bed now. Have to be a waitress at the church November market/Christmas fair in the morning.

    never!!!! :d

    Maybe not :D

    I literally fell about laughing earlier when I was watching the news. The reporter walked past a shop called 4play in Cockermouth :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Obviously the floods are heartbreaking though ;)
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Oh NO! The pink fluffy phaze comes directly before the "anything smelling of lavender" phase............better book your place in the old peoples home:rotfl:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    It was another dane Beanie, a little boy. Once upon a time, I'd have just brought him home, but budgets and practicalities won this time. Maybe I'm growing up ehh :o
