Cheers plu! No, it wasn't meant to be false modesty, I'm just comfortable with what I'm good at, and what bits I'm not- sadly they were just all the nice things that my Mum happened to be good at 
. Plus the fact that I think being musical, having an ability for languages and being co-ordinated enough to dance (or even tell left from right and catch a ball occasionally 
) would be rather useful!
PS- just noticed that a rogue 'l' got into my post at half nine; it should've been radiates jealousy. Brief haddocking has been administered.
TMI/Me post bit- had smear test. Discovered I have thrush, brought on by the course of anti-biotics I've just had to take. Smear therefore rather painful, but I had taken a couple of painkillers before hand. Exciting trip to chemist's tomorrow.
Again, the glamour, the glamour!
Glad to see both AWCH and HLC are still around, if in stealth-lurk mode up until recently, and I know you were planning a big catch up Horse, but don't feel obliged!
Sorry you're feeling down HLC, and please do come and vent to your heart's content. How's Rocco doing atm?
And how's DS hawthers, has he woken from his nap a little brighter?
Dear Bob aethel- yes, the two full, uninterrupted nights' sleep you've had. Aaahahhahahahahha. Perhaps show your DH the groove you've worn into the carpet and this thread lurching through every night?!
And I am sooooo hungry, am going to have to eat something else, perhaps cereal....
