Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.

Re: i will be back
Hi VERNON
I have a house on the Quay Side there overlooking the Estuary.
All car parks are free, Not like Liverpool where they charge £2 and hour so tourist cannot afford to go for the day.
Fleetwood is an old fashioned resort, on the side of Morecambe Bay and just a tram ride north of Blackpool but has been well maintained and modernised. Full of friendly people and the best of all is William`s Bacon Barms.
I had anaesthetic this morning and lumps cut out of me and on my head, for a possible skin cancer again, I will get the results in 3 to 4 weeks. My Birthday weekend as well so it didnt stop me celebrating, I had my first drink of Rum for 15 months since my op in Hawaii last year, it was lovely, but felt rough on Sunday..
Cheers
Brian.
