    Me please!!! looking forward to battening down the hatches but will post targets tomorrow.
    Was looking for the original quote for 'Onwards and upwards' and there are about four....liked this one though
    "And so, lifting as we climb, onward and upward we go, struggling and striving, and hoping that the buds and blossoms of our desires will burst into glorious fruition ere long. With courage, born of success achieved in the past, with a keen sense of the responsibility which we shall continue to assume, we look forward to a future large with promise and hope. Seeking no favors because of our color, nor patronage because of our needs, we knock at the bar of justice, asking an equal chance." Mary Church Terrell (born 1863)

    Thank you everyone for the great support it has been appreciated......x
