    Thanks Linda - we have just been looking at it. My daughter will have a wheelchair and a mobility scooter so it will just be me walking and it doesn't seem too bad.

    Okay - stupid question?

    Once I have printed off and made my christmas organised home planner....will the website tell me what to do week by week.....:o


    Ooo I was about to quote that link at you hang on,

    You know the link - on the right hand side there is a menu and each week is listed.

    BUT the problem with that plan/links is its all based around a book on Amazon - that has some of the stuff in it so its basically an ad for the book.

    However this plan (same website)

    http://christmas.organizedhome.com/holiday-grand-plan

    is all on the website!!!

    and this is week one

    http://christmas.organizedhome.com/holiday-grand-plan/list-week

    He he
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    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.

    I didnt go to download, we tried sonisphere festival at knebworth.
    i actually preferred it to download tbh, the stages were set out much better,its not as big as download but it was only its second year, so still in its infancy.

    rammstein and iron maiden were fantastic.
    i have never been a fan of gary numan or alice cooper but after seeing them live, they have pulled me in:T:D.

    how about you?

    oh and i got burnt to a crisp:(, i was sooo sore for days.

    good luck for the run!! hope youve been training hard.
