    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.

    Think Edinburgh meet is 5/6th Dec Linda. Not that I can go boo hoo.....
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    I can't go to Edinburgh either, I'm going to Hard Rock Hell at Pontins instead.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Thanks Toto, 6 month subscription to Glamour taken out for me (I buy it anyway when I am not being 'good' and avoiding magazines), £25 store credit with Hot Diamonds, but not spent yet as I will wait and see if I get the additional £25 for the subscription.

    Either way, I will get my Mum a necklace for her birthday, which is just after Christmas.

    :T :T :T
