I don't accept limitations

Hmmmmmmm, I wonder what you'll think of this? Link to programme So, I watched the above programme this morning and found it very thought provoking. I'll just put up a load of bullet points as my thoughts are rather sleep deprived at the moment! 1 - The most telling part of the programme for me was when her daughter got up and left the signing session, went and sat down and stuck her head in her hands.
