Individually they can be delicate; maybe even fragile. But bonded together they can paralyse a city or create an avalanche that can sweep everything before them. This is so true, and I hate the negative use of the word snowflake, too. I have no idea where it came from but it's so annoying!

I love your challenge, although I always find it hard to 'big up' myself - like most Brits, I think! I am going to go with my optimism - I am a glass half full person most (not all!) of the time, which helps me cope with my health problems. And when I watch our show I look for all the good in each episode, not the bad as some 'fans' seem to love to do!
