One hundred pages of moans and seventy seven of being happy.

What does that say of us?

We're human and part of our basic biology is that the bad aspects of life make a greater impact on us, we remember them, and hopefully learn from them and so avoid them in the future ;)

I reckon there must be a large percentage of posts in amongst all these "Moans" which are actually not moans at all.... it seems we often divert to a good point... or three, after a moan is raised!  :D

Moaning about the weather is perfectly acceptable - you can't please everyone all of the time can you?
