What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0

Morning All :wave:
Hope you're all well.
Happy Birthday for yesterday Rachel :bdaycake:
I also had a birthday yesterday. Not a major milestone so just had a pub lunch with MrR and BabyR.
Gardenanna - MrR comes out with the "everyone" drinks like he does as well. And whenever we have visitors or always offers them a beer. Surely most people offer visitors tea or coffee??
MissP - Good luck with getting to target. But don't beat yourself up if you don't quite get there. You've had a tough month
Enjoy your day all!
