    Decided that I wasn't quitter and trudged round to friend's for a drink and a natter. Was going to get a taxi back but *** it and trudged back.
    Nasty out there - a mixture of ice and thawed snow so slid a bit. :rotfl:

    Baguette in oven. Loads to do off today's list but will start early tomorrow instead.

    Hope you feel better for going out bookie :T

    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'm supposed to be in for 9.30 but if this snow keeps up it won't be happening!

    Another inch has fallen in the last half hour! :eek:
