Today, after the madness of Britmumslive, the struggling home with all the bags and the collapse on to the settee to watch a bit of footy, it was all a bit flat really.
So many lovely people and, oddly, lots of them seemed to know who I was – I was hoping to be slightly anonymous….
And then, after all that, @Lolly_knickers tweets something that sounds a bit naff, but then turns out to be utterly beautiful.
So, please watch this. Twice, if you like (I did). I’m not telling you what it is, though you may have seen it if you follow me on Twitter. And it will explain why the title is warm and fuzzy and why the picture is duct tape.
I’ve never done surfing – the idea of being in the sea while people on huge planks go at you/round you/over your head just never really appealed to me.
But this just made me smile – the look on the lady’s face with her ‘perma-grin’ made my day. Hopefully it might make you smile too.

Anything is possible. Too bloody right. The perfect Monday morning post Bruce.
So inspiring and heart-warming. My dad’s best friend is currently training for the next Paralympic Games because he wants to start in the handcycling race. Anything is possible and I have utmost respect for those who try – no matter, if they’ll succeed or not. For me they’re winners already!
Love you Bruce. Duct tape – who’d have thought it could facilitate such a life-affirming experience?!
Okay, wow! This is the sort of thing that puts everything into perspective. To quote that cat food ad ‘life is for living’! (nb I do not have a cat, I am a dog person).
Oh this is fab, goosebumps fab. I love it – dream big and you can do anything.
Inspirational and uplifting. Puts the rest of us to shame when we use the words “I can’t” several times a day
I love Bruce he is a legend and of course you.
Bruce for Prime minster.
inspiring post
Beautiful video Bruce – and I am in tears again…can I blame you again as well?! 😉 Such a fantastic video for a Monday, inspiring. Wonderful – and proving that if you really want something, then you can really find a way…
Properly inspiring vid – so cool and look what people can do when they work together!
Yes I was a bit excited to see you and did take a photo from the distance. Lovely to meet you. Off to watch the video 🙂
Anything is possible (especially with duct tape)
This made me beam. I’ve been surfing – I’m useless but my OH loves the water and surfs as much as possible. What a wonderful thing. Magical to watch.
Oh goodness. Tears! What an inspiring woman, and what a brilliant guy to help her achieve her dreams. Thanks so much for sharing Bruce 🙂 x
