    I was cold last night, I had two blankets and my duvet.

    I can't do the weekend before Bunny's birthday, I fly out to Barcelona on Sunday 7th. :(

    Boooo!

    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.

    I think I got out of bed the wrong side today, either that or I am turning into a grumpy old woman....

    I feel like shouting 'SHUT UP!!!'

    But a peeler is soooo much quicker (and dont get me started on his one knife - rubbish flimsy thing) - I like nice kitchen stuff ;)

    (to be fair he didnt have a colinder (sp?) when I met him either - till I burnt my hand trying to drain potatoes!)

    Why oh why oh why do tghey keep asking the same questions and asking for the same evidence? :mad:
    And they expect me to have receipts for every single bit of home improvements I have done! :confused:
    Rats to them. I don't have them and I don't care if they don't give me the wretched money.

    Hiya Scorgeous :wave: nice to see you back.

    Sorry, I could have sworn you just said you were running the Mersey Tunnel 10k on the Sunday and then the Bupa 10k on the Monday....but no-one would be that crazy, surely? :D :rotfl:

    Talking of crazy, I have just been looking at triathlons.... :eek:
