    Typical, I've just posted on the old thread about falling down the stairs cos I need a hug and the new one gets going! Least the tears have stopped but my @rse is v sore
    ouch, are you o.k? i feel for you, i had a accident last week while decorating and bruised my @rse don't know if i was more upset about that or the tin of paint that split while falling.

    not to sure where to start with the flying this week, DD has been staying for a long weekend while of school, not done any flying today as it's my birthday and this place looks a tip:eek: guess i will just have to crack on with it after college.

    I love the idea of being 'special'. My kids have often said to me "Mother - you're mad". My constant reply is "It's the only way to be".

    Now I can say "No, I'm not mad, I'm special"

    Thank you pigpen
