When I was younger I was bullied a great deal, and always tried to buy peoples friendship, up until about 20 years ago when I realised that you didn't need to have a huge group of friends, I have a few really close friends now, and through Friend's Reunited and Facebook I have contacted quite a few people from the past, and I have stood up too and faced many of the bullies. I thanked them as they made me the person I am today, when I first moved to Scotland I found it surreal watching people grow and get older it totally freaked me out!!

Don't think so Action, it is not home, Germany was a lovely place to live when we stayed in Guterslough we had alot of german friends and lived well within the community would love to go back.

do you know each year, one of us will say lets get married this year and the other will say naaaa, I think one day we will just do it, we have been together over 11 years now, it will be a small intimate wedding, Ive been married twice and my OH has been married once, when is your wedding Leanna? big or small? love all the excitement of a wedding, my first was huge church wedding, second Registry office.

and both hands off the steering wheel sometimes, glad you got through ok Christa, hate big trucks always drive too close and too fast xx

Tracey as we know a crave is a thought, feed the thought fuel and it will grow, you doused it out with a good deal of sensible thinking atta girl, thats all it takes to get rid of the crave/trigger you are in control of it, no-body else, no excuses, we got this, group hug Yeahhh xx

Well Done Laura, fingers, legs and eyes crossed for you hope you get the job and well done for not smoking xx

Congratulations on the Job Colleen, and sorry to see you are having a stressfull day, BUT well done on coming here and venting, you shout, scream, yell , cuss all you like, if it gets the frustration directed away from allowing the thought of smoking to grow then SHOUT EVEN LOUDER. xx

Hi Tiff sorry to have missed your SOS but great to see so many coming to help, and so glad to see you didn't smoke, the craves are horrendous when they hit I can remember my last really hard crave and you do feel like screaming, but sometimes just sitting down and telling yourself calmly its just a thought, do not feed it, entertain it or give it credit in any way and it will go away, its only when you allow it room to grow that it will increase in strength, you did great xx

HAHAH Action love it, now would that be husband number 1, 2 or soon to be number 3, I love diamonds you see!! x

Sarah Well done you kicked nicodemon's butt, each time you face and overcome a trigger/crave you become stronger in your quit, just remember its only a tiny thought inside your head, if you don't fan the flames of the thought it wont grow and will die out. xx

Well Done Evelyn you did fantastic
