    Well done to successful job applicants and young folk trying difficult things.


    We had a lovely night away last night. Dinner B+B in a thatched pub in a hamlet in Devon. Really lovely scenery, we will stay there again in late May when we go to pick up our puppy. We saw a litter this morning and chose a sturdy boy. They were all adorable.

    Glad you had a lovely time spirit. Sounds idyllic. Is the puppy still a flattie?

    Well done Kab

    I'll try and do a page tonight, but I feel uncomfy with asking people to donate really
    (I'll probably end up donating to MacMillan myself).

    I appreciate the support though. :)
    It wasn't that long ago that running 1km required a pause for breath in the middle. [Mo Farah I am not!]

    Spirit I hope you'll let us see a photo when you've got him :)

    Good luck kab. Which marathon is it? I wondered if it was the London one but that doesn't seem to be until later in the month?

    Hope all the NPs are well and happy with things. I've lots to read and catch up on.

    I'm less than 24 hours out from the marathon. It's at this point I start reading about all the things I should have done ! :D

    It seems it was all about something called "the plan". I've never had a workable plan in my life, and I'm not about to start now!

    I think you'll find they changed the name to snickers a few years ago. Nonetheless, good luck - have you checked you don't have a nut allergy?.
    I think....

    Actual conversation with DW at 8.30pm tonight.

    DW : Do you know which station you will travel in to?

    Me : Err, that's on my list to look up tonight.

    DW : rolls eyes.

    Did I mention I must be nuts to not plan anything?

    (Snickers was a daft name for choccie bar)
    :)
