I have acres and acres of notebooks, poetry, rambling nonsense and diaries.

I never kept it , but I am sure it was not as literary excellent as this.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15273512192400237563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-51907135977077544242010-11-12T23:46:03.339+00:002010-11-12T23:46:03.339+00:00Thank YOU for reading Colin and for all the encour...Thank YOU for reading Colin and for all the encouragement.Sue Marshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14849801822216267250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-90167876785745926852010-11-12T23:31:41.198+00:002010-11-12T23:31:41.198+00:00Sue - your blogs just get better and better.

Should be compulsory reading for all government ministers, council chief executives, NHS Directors etc. I am constantly humbled.

You aren't a victim, that's just your body. You are a strong, feisty woman, your body is a bloody nuisance from time to time, but they don't imprison you, just your body. <3KENhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14161100235389055056noreply@blogger.com
