    That's actually not too bad, my sis was running down the stairs one day and me and my other sis (I have 4) started falling about as if there was an earthquake - she wasn't amused Got her own back though, cos she now weighs about a stone less than I do (I was always the skinny one - how times change)!

    LOL! When I was young and coming down the stairs my dad used to shout 'It sounds like a herd of baby elephants!' Charming. :rotfl:

    Blondie is on the main board everyone. I don't usually post, I'm more of a lurker on this thread, but quick, everyone head over to Debt Free Wannabee because I think she could use some friendly faces right now.

    Oooh, thank goodness someone else has noticed! I have been reading this diary but not posted yet and I was worried that you had missed her post!

    I hope she's OK, look after her ladies!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    It's amazing how a crisis brings us lurkers out.

    Chin up Blondie! We love you!!!

    dfw844 and laura - thanks for the heads up!

    This is one of those times when you wish we weren't just all virtual friends, but could meet up at Blondie's and just be there isn't it?!

    Hopefully you are on your way to the doctors at the moment, please let us all know how you got on (sending dodgy kisses cos I can't find the dodgy hugs!) :kisses:

    Hear, hear! Can just imagine us all rocking up with plenty of wine and snacks to settle in and talk through the whole thing until our Blondie was smiling again. Oh well, I guess this is the virtual equivalent!
