    I watched the lecture last night, was rather amazing wasn't it Pooky. His way with words and style really made me think of Toto. Toto where are yooooooooooou?

    Pooky you are right, I begrudge spending money on tat that won't be used but equally I don't want to spend loads..these aren't really friends after all

    I did see some of the lecture, but wasn't in the right mood to watch it. Terry Pratchett is so damn eloquent (it wasn't Tony Robinson who wrote it was it) and so looks like he belongs in Discworld

    Bunny are you up for the race that I posted above?

    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.
  • Linda,
    I would love to do it...I saved the link and keep looking at it...let me think
