    I prefer to be ill in private! Rather embarrassingly I weep very easily when I'm ill and things get all out of proportion, for example, I've just cried all over a friend who is looking after my horse for me until I'm better. I cried because I was so grateful :rolleyes:

    Glad its not just me!;) I cry easily anyway so am loads worse when poorly. Can't speak to my mum on the phone when I'm ill or I just blub all over the place. Very embarrassing trait in a 35 year old!!

    Fantastic diary, will be watching in from now on. Love the bag of carrots, guess he can take a joke and that's pretty important.

    I'd love to own a horse when I'm older and have a bit more money and time, although your thread might put me off!

    You are so very welcome Dinah! Please pop in whenever you have a moment to spare. There are always horse stories, stories of me putting my big foot in it, sometimes both feet and general silliness....

    Having a horse is the best thing ever, but the commitment is enormous, today I've cried over someone who will look after him for me until I'm back on my feet. I was just so grateful.....

    I thought it was just me!:o It's a horrible trait, but not as bad as the crying when you're angry one. I've been known to do that too and it just makes me angrier :mad:
