Sounds like a huge day - my son was at yesterday's 26/2 and also said he had an amazing time - sounds like you have similar music taste. He started back at Uni today which I don't think was easy - I didn't hear him come in so don't know how late it went!!

[[deleted user]]

Interesting. I like the idea that being generous does not necessarily involve money eg you can be generous with time.

Please watch this - it's worth thinking about.

Had a big night in training last night!!! I ran for 400m!!! I ran for the first time in my life I ran and I loved the feel of it!! I felt so free!!! I always thought that watching my hubby run and his athletic friends run that it looked liked flying now I know it feels like it too!! Something so small and insignificant to most people is massive to me!!

Is anyone else flooding?? Shocker amounts of rain where at the moment where I am.

Oh Ash, that's no good:( I hope you guys will be ok!! Hope your house is ok! Where do you live? It has just started to rain here, but not heavy. We've had warnings of flash flooding for the next 48 hours though!

[[deleted user]]

Not like flooding as in how it was in Queensland!! Where I am it's quite high so for me it is a LOT, but I guess it's not really. The flats are really under, I had to go home from school!! That was pretty good =). I live ...hmm how to explain that, well bout 5-6 1/2 hours south of Syndey, right on the coast.
