    Been to an inter county athletics meet tonight with DS. He and 2 other lads in yr 7 got picked last week out of all the schools in the whole of Cheshire to represent Cheshire against Merseyside.

    He was competing in Long Jump and he won it:T:T:T:T:T:T
    So proud of him and the other 2 lads:T as they also came 2nd and 3rd.

    Anyway enough with the proud mother moment but also found 10p in the car park, so in the pot it goes.

    Welcome to the newbies, enjoy it on here we are a very friendly and [STRIKE]nosey[/STRIKE] bunch. Glad you are feeling better LC2 xxx

    Congratulations to your Son Course you are proud and so you should be :T:T:T

I don't think it's been that bad, unless you're up in Northumberland :p...It's been pretty mild until recently :D..People were complaining about it being quite warm and their heating had been turned of early etc. :j until recently :eek:. Where you from Oops ;)? Tyneside, Wearside, Durham....

    :rotfl:I'm from that well-known barren wasteland - LC2 country - otherwise known as Warrington :rotfl:I suppose that's the balmy south compared to you.

    Do you mean that's why it's popular or that's why there's no road kill :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
