All quiet on the eastern front - DGS tearfully told me that he wanted to go home to his DM, but we've talked him round and there is no sound from upstairs. We've never had a problem before (not that this is a problem, it's just never arisen before).
Crem, that sounds horrendous; get thee to an A&E department soon. My sciatica never affected me like that, although it was extremely painful and I could hardly walk.
Glad to hear the party went well, Rose.
DNephew was at the playoffs this afternoon; he is going to be gutted about Derby losing. We have sort of half watched it, in between playing cars on the floor - Derby definitely seemed the better team.
MI, my DSiL looks very Middle Eastern, complete with beard, although he has a very English surname (think Smith), and I was convinced when he came with us to the States that we would have trouble with the authorities, but no. For several years it was always me that got picked upon. Oh, and blush sounds a lovely colour.
