    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Morning everyone! Not so sunny here in Suffolk today, but I think it will stop raining by lunchtime so I can go to the market and get some fresh produce!

    Good luck Lenny with the shed! The only one I can picture at the moment is the one Frank Spencer tried to build!! Can't wait to see the photos!

    Hi I_A. Did your OH enjoy the footie last night? I did think about him when I saw the words 'drab 0-0 draw' in the report! And I bet it was cold too!

    I too have my DH going on at me for being on 'my website'! However, I just point out to him that over the last 2 years we have saved so much money with everyone's great advice on here! That soon shuts him up!

    Apparently he had a great time although the match itself wasn't great. He had a great time with the lads. :)
