    Hi, folks. Firstly, THANK YOU for all the votes of confidence:A. I have to admit, I've been having some horrible nightmares lately, in which my dear mother (dripping sarcasm there btw) reminded me yet again, as she very often did, that no-one, but NO-ONE would ever be interested in anything I had to say:mad:. I guess it's started getting to me. Short bird I loved those pictures, specially the one with the dog toting half a tree!:rotfl:

    There's a technique I've seen Paul McKenna demonstrate on telly: imagine the critical voice in your head, whoever he or she may be, saying the same things but in a voice that makes you laugh or undermine the message. Like The Terminator saying "I'll be back" but in Joe Pasquale's voice, for example. Find voices that work for you....

    And if that fails at first, have another go after a look at Cute Overload or IMMD (It Made My Day). :D
    Glad that the dog with the tree proved useful...:D

    I have made a start on the kitchen and, while waiting for the sill to dry I have pruned the lilac. The cat has use it to scratch and I think it's in death throes, sending out loads of 'suckers'. So I have clipped them and, since I don't fancy taking a saw to it, am waiting for it to die...

    so having a quick :coffee: help yourselves:coffee::coffee:coffee.gifmisc.php?do=getsmilies&wysiwyg=0&forumid=4misc.php?do=getsmilies&wysiwyg=0&forumid=4misc.php?do=getsmilies&wysiwyg=0&forumid=4
