    I ordered a pizza, the order's coming at tea time on wednesday so it'll be a treat, and it was half price. I can't believe it took me nearly 2 hours to do an online shop, it's half that in a real one!

    Sammy, I promise not to let you drink wine. Vodka's ok though yeah?

    I'm not wearing the dress either, I've got a black maxi dress with silver bits that I'm going to wear. Probably.

    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.
