My Mum said to my Dad earlier "don't spoil the ship"
I asked wtflip she was talking about and apparently it's a saying that goes "don't let a ha'penth of tar spoil the ship". In other words, finish the job properly or it'll ruin the rest of the work.

Not actually a Proverb but something Dolly Parton said in an interview with a reporter that I think about sometimes when certain people call me names "How," he said, "do you get round the image of DUMB BLONDE" Well, she drawled, "I ain't DUMB and I ain't BLONDE either"

Nah, not good being my age at the moment. Retirement age creeping up... I'll be working until I'm 90 at this rate. That's if I haven't fallen apart by then.
Nearly 30 (well, 7 months time) and done bugger all with my life so far. Apart from starting this degree in October and finding a wonderful fella that is ;D
