Hope you liked them as much as did.

Hugs and kisses to you all

Sweet sexy day people

Morning everyone.... yes I survived.... Thank you for all your kind words and support.

Well for anyone that wants to know the run happened yesterday and my god do I hurt today... but it was worth it.

Well just to prove it did happen (No pictures didn't happen...lol)

The route: points 8 to 2 and a little bit more total just over 14 miles

An hour long soak in the bath and I was just about able to stand again...Walking was, and still is, a different matter though...lol my feet have decided to disown the rest of my body....

Resting today but wanted to let you all know I was still alive...


Have a great day you sexy lot

Nothing Sexy and nothing Fun so now’s the time to run away!!! lol

As some of your will know tomorrow will be exactly a year since my mother passed away....

I am not going to grieve I am not going to mope instead I decided a while back I was going to do something to turn it into a happy and worthwhile day so, as those who have been following my exploits will know, I decided to run a 1/2 marathon in her honour and raise some money for charity. The Aim £500.

Tomorrow at 10am I start my quest (which has actually grown slightly to just over 14miles)and although I won’t be running fast nor will I look professional I will get to the end with a little help from my friends and supporters. (Those of you on here that have been so supportive I thank you from the bottom of my heart, although I think my legs will have something else to say tomorrow... ;D)

Anyway I mentioned the other day on site I had to go pick up my T-shirt for the run and I thought you might like to see it:

The Front:

& the Back:

Hopefully people along the route will actually now realise I am not mad, the weather reports for tomorrow are not looking good, but just trying to brighten someone’s day a little.

For obvious reasons I probably won’t be on tomorrow but will try to let you all know how it went...

Have fun and remember to spread a smile a day....

P.S nearly forgot about the charity money bit... looks like I am going to raise about 3 times my original aim... so nearly £1,500.... when I sat down and worked it out I nearly passed out... Someone obviously likes me!!!

Hugs and kisses to you all

I was going to write something completely different to this to, so to speak, blow my own trumpet however, I stopped to read some blogs before I started and something struck me.

Although this is an adult site and I grant you a lot of us come here to look at the luscious ladies and gents, maybe meet a few and in some cases then marry them. This site is so much more to many of us:

To some it is an escape from a real world that they have no joy in.

To some it is a place they can air their thoughts and get comments or help without having to talk to people face to face.

For some it is the only communication they get with the outside world albeit fact or fiction.

And then there are some who use the site to spread a little happiness and a smile or tear of joy throughout.

Unfortunately there are also some (and thankfully very few) that see it as a playground for underhanded stabs and bullying and I am not going to dwell on those as that is not what this is blog is about.

In every walk of life and every avenue you take there are going to be ups and downs there are going to be good times and bad times but the one thing about NN that stands out the most me.... (And yes it is my opinion) is that there is always someone here who will help make your day seem just that little bit brighter. Even the simple things of just saying hello on status can make someone’s day a brighter one.

You never know what a person on a site like NN is truly thinking or how bad their day is going but what you do know is that one day that may be you and therefor why not just say hi, send them a smile. One day it might happen to you when you need it and imagine how good that smile will feel to you.

To all my friends out there past and present and to all those friends in the future when you have gone through the downs and made it to the ups send a smile to those still down there and help them on their way.

It takes more muscles to frown than it does to smile so save yourself some energy and smile!!!

Hugs and kissess to anyone that wants them and a dirty great big smile for anyone who needs one.

Have a great day and thank you all for reading.

Oh PS to help that smile on its way:



Take care out there
