    and greenbee - not sure I should be lumped in with TAG and Valli -

    I was thinking about how welcoming you were to everyone - if TAG and Valli keep a low profile your posts will make everyone think we're lovely and normal and friendly... then once they're committed, they should be able to deal with the shock of encountering the peg-fetishists' self help group ;) I certainly don't think you're in the same league as those two :p

    Hugs PP. Sometimes that just happens - for me, usually from tiredness! Or overwhelmedness (is that a word?) You have so much going on . . . .
