I'm sorry, I am weeping and I have tried not to. But I have somewhere quiet to discuss that, so just wanted to join in here as feel a bit like real-life doesn't understand, so I need to be with internet people who do (if that makes sense!?)
My memory of Zombie that makes me laugh, I alluded to it on Facebook post, so this is me outing myself!
Back on 2010/11 ish when I were but a Mumsnet baybee, wet behind the ears and eager to join in spent every waking second here I started reading a Zombie Apocalypse thread. I was hooked. Then this really funny character pops up, IAmTheZombie, and I instantly fall in love with the suave, sophisticated, third-person-talking, oft three limbed, Zombie. So, after a lot of wine I've joined in the thread and am enjoying the camaraderie, I declare my love for Zombie. I ask if Zombie is single. Zombie is clearly horrified and probably would have clutched pearls, had she been wearing them. Zombie tells Brian "I am a respectable married Zombie thankyouverymuch" 
There started an online friendship that has meant a lot to me over the years, a lot of support and virtual hand-holding, a hell of a lot of laughter most importantly.
I really had hoped to meet you in person, I kept thinking recently that my free weekend in March was do-able, but it appears not.
I said it on FB, I shall say it here. Thank you Zombie xxx
