    Silly question on here, but assume you have a Sparks card?

    I do have one technically, but never registered it :o
    I only ever buy undies there so never quite got round to it!

    Is there a chance it mgiht be of use for this? I assumed it was just points for purchases.

    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Weight loss 3 stone :D
