      • I live in London & though we’re always talking about the weather, the forecast is never right lol. I thought ‘Tania and I must be neighbours lol. but it’s a deep lesson too! if the weather forecast is often wrong, then why fuss over what the weather might be like? :)

  4. Unfortunately I have to agree with #15 :( but I also love #17 and #22! I hope you have a wonderful birthday :)
