Hmm, good question. Sadly my biggest achievement so far was years ago when I made the law review. Marc just got his second book contract with a serious publisher so I think that's probably his biggest so far.

Buying a house was up there, too, but looking back I think it was more a mistake than anything else.

It was to learn Spanish. I started 1 year ago and now I can hold a basic discussion and understand things, also I can almost conjugate verbs like a pro, the reason I started is cos in a few years time, we are moving to spain, its a fun language to learn, cant wait to have siestas under the palm trees

Deleted the first because it was probably a bit too identifying..

Three things I suppose.. first is dealing with being diagnosed with a life-affecting condition without going to pieces.. second is linked in that I lost a lot of weight, which I've managed to keep off, and third is making a satisfying career change..

Our biggest joint achievement was getting on the housing market at 21 & 23. Most of our friends & family thought we were just talking shit when we said we were going to buy our own place.

It was challenging and we made quite a few sacrifices but so worth it.

Mine - When I first started my job, I thought that I wouldnt last the month before quitting. I've been there over 11 years now.

Dragging myself to the UK and taking advantage of what I could get.

Knuckling down at School.

And then obtaining and doing a very rewarding job on many levels. This has helped me achieve a good standard of living and the trappings that go with it.

Which after my shitty childhood was sadly my main aim in life. So in that way I have achieved.

"i know i bore everyone with it all the time but my biggest achievement so far is my running.

If you'd have asked me 3 years ago to run 11 miles to my sisters house then go off and take the pony out on a walk the day after tailrunning Worcester parkrun with a friend i would have laughed in your face!!

No you are VERY wrong Evie. I'm always interested and impressed in your running achievements and I think that those that have known you here for long enough are impressed too. xx "

Me too!

I'd like you to bottle some of that motivation and send it to me please?!

Meeting my OH. When we met he was in a really bad place with his health and together we've managed to get him to a better place. And I'm seriously proud of him for everything he does.

Maybe Lands End to John O Groats.I had the heaviest bloody panniers and bike too. And no training. AND a knackered ITB band when I started!

Made a decision to climb off at Liskeard station as the pain was so bad. It was awful. But I persevered and by the time we'd reached the Peak District i was flying(almost literally on some of those descents;dodging cattle on the road aside).

"Personal achievement, after all these years of wanting to sing I've actually got off my arse, over come my shyness & am now doing it. Not professionally, but just being able to perform in front of others has given me a sense of purpose & new found confidence."

Me too. I love to sing and joining a choir has given me more self confidence than anything else I've done.

I have achieved many things that I am extremely proud of but the most enduring is surviving all the shit that life has thrown at me and waking up each day with a smile on my face and my middle finger up at those who have tried to keep me down
