    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.

    Penultimate Fri at Millennium, WHOOP! Forgot to go for my blood test this morning so have to leave early and go do that.

    I had a Stoke Oat Cake for breakfast, nom nom.

    Snags-I am feeling your car pain, my car is desperate!

    Morning Bun. Yukky blood tests. It sounds like we are all having car problems at the moment.

    What's a Stoke Oat Cake - it sounds very dry for some reason, but I'm sure it was delish.

    Morning everyone :wave:

    Elfen - good luck with the essay. I'm sure you will be fine.

    Butti - have a fantastic holiday.

    BOS - my stomach is now making loud noises after reading what you're having for breakfast! :rotfl:

    Snaggles - I hope the car doesn't cost you too much.

    I'm 25p away from getting a £40 pay out from onepoll - yeah :j and what is the betting there will be no new surveys today?

    Goodness I am tired, which is odd because my lack of sleep finally caught up on me last night and I slept for 9 hours, which is a LOT for me.

    Perhaps your body is getting used to coping with less sleep so you may have, in effect, overslept?

    8 hours is normal for me.....anything less and I starting getting grouchy.

    Could be Suzy, it's roughly double my usual amount of sleep!

    Going to make an effort to go to bed at a reasonable time for the next few days though and see if I can retrain my brain to sleep more.

    Linda, sounds like a busy weekend! You definitely deserve a decent breakfast.
