    Yes S/e -I am indeed around... but I have been dragged off for the afternoon to look at cars with OH so had to leave my laptop ... and all you stinky lot ;) ...behind :(

    I must've read through 2 pages before we left and never got to post, and then cameback to find you lot had been very busy in my absence!!

    I think, rather than loading the pics onto here, I'll just post the hyperlinks so you can look at will... how will that do?

    I'll try and scan back and reply to the bits that refer to me, I fear everything else will just have to wait today as you've all been far too chatty for me to keep up with ;)

    That sounds like a sensible solution.

    I don't have it either, plc, but I've been here for a while and no-one's told me to push off yet so come on in. The more the merrier.
    We tried s/e, but you didn't take the hint ;)

    Lupus - I had a test for something to do with this, I think, in amongst all the other tests that the endocrinologist sent me for - I think (but I might be wrong and/or confused) that it was the "stress test" that they sent me for, to see if my blood bits rallied round to protect me from whatever it was they'd injected me with. That test was painful, I don't want it again :(

    Laptops - I'm a naughty girl and do often have it on my lap. However I do usually only have it on my lap when I'm lying on my back on the couch with my knees up... if you see what I mean? I usually have it on a foot stool or a little table or the arm of the couch. I do have the neck aches etc but I change position fairly frequently as I get the pelvic aches (in particular) otherwise.

    Alcohol - s/e, one of ME's (yes that controversial "disorder" ;)) known symptoms is intolerance to alcohol/stimumants so I'd go along with that to an extent. I think the fact that: we're on so many drugs that either play well with others (like alcohol); or we already feel so weird that we don't wanna have to try and work out whether it's alcohol/drug induced; makes a difference too. Can't remember when I last had a drink :confused:

    Hello :wave: to newbies. We are a friendly, if giddy, lot and teacher comes to shout sometimes... so you'll either get on with us or leave I suspect!

    Cwta - I've got Diclofenac for what I call my temple headaches, but when I had my last (vice-like grip) headache they just did nothing. I've had tramadol once a day for the last 3/4 days... nothing extreme... yet. ;)

    I think I've gone back as far as patience will allow, so if there's something I've missed/forgotten/or was directed at me then you'll have to repost to get my attention ;)

    Piccies: some to be going on with:

    Let me know what you think... but be kind! (S/e that means you too ;))

    Actually, I'm well impressed. Wish I could do that sort of thing.

    I particularly like the butterflies.

    So, when do we get to see the jewellery?
