    Ohh my goodness me, what an exciting few days you've had MG :j :beer:

    I have to admit, reading what you did actually made me feel sick at the thought of it. There's no way on this planet I'd be able to do anything like that. Good on ya MG :eek: :T

    Hey Spud, love your signiture (the saying part). And I am sure that you can do many amazing things - probably not what MG does but...

    When my son was a toddler I used to read to him a book called Giraffes can't dance. The story is that evrybody in the forest could dance except the giraffe - and of course everyone laughed at him. Poor giraffe got so upset that he went deep into nthe forest, looked at the moon and heard this amazing music - and he started dancing so well that all animals wanted to dance like him. "Everyone can dance if they find their own music" is what the story tells children.

    It was my absolute favourite and I have shared this story since at many highbrow academic gatherings. But then, I do have the reputation of being slightly eccentric...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

  • Hi everyone, a quick reply from my phone cos, yet again, I am away from home for work again and can't keep up with my usual moneysaving stuff is eBay listings, pad, etc. A bit cheesed off.

    So MG, well-bl**dy done hinny! I am so pleased for you!

    Thank you all of you lovely people for advice re: my previous posting and my tedious dark tunnel. I am currently working my way through 'Mike's' thread and can associate with loads of his descriptions etc.

    Hi MemoryGirl and everyone following,

    It's taken me over nearly 2 weeks to read this diary and it's been the best feel-good and motivational thing I could have read.

    I have been mind mapping ideas ever since I starred reading and. while I don't want to start a business, some of things talked about have really got me thinking.

    MG - you have a wonderful and infectious style of writing and the warmth and fun that comes from you is fantastic.

    Keep on going- there are such wonderful experiences ahead for you and your lovely children!

    Night night all
