It’s not true that what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.

It just kills you more slowly.

I agree with the previous commenter re: being hit in the head with a snowball, especially in the face. I grew up with two brothers so I’m a field expert on the subject.

I never smile when someone throws a snow ball at my head. I can laugh at a lot of abuse, but something about being hit in the head by a snow ball enrages me. 🙂 Marry Christmas, Pippa!

I want to be quite too happy too! I need a huge brown teapot, obviously.
Great stuff, Pippa.
Best wishes as always, Pete. x
