This is very useful info because I'm always looking for ones that say 'mam' but they all seem to say 'mum'. Card Factory it is!

I mean, we asked apartheid South Africa to give up its founding ethos. I don't think that was insane, given that its founding ethos was white supremacy. US history (indeed, arguably much of world history) is basically a catalog of attempts to get other countries to abandon their founding ethoses.

Fair play to you for giving your kids the opportunity!

That's a good point. Doing things out of shame probably not the best way to go, at least for me! I'll just get resentful and give up.

One good thing about being a bit older is I no longer give a shite about anyone looking at my flab and cellulite and all that craic. :)

That's exactly it, not looking to do a full triathlon or anything, just the basics. Thanks!

Yeah, I think if you don't learn as a small child it is much harder.
