Apart from the gravity bit (and I'm sure it's not far off)...I get all this already

Do I know any of you lot?

Tahir, just had a horrible thought - given that your avotar looks like Tom Baker - you aren't going to morph into Peter Davidson/Colin Baker/Sylvester McCoy?

Sister in law, dur brain.

She had a great time. I had to deal with offspring no 2 having a 1 hour paddy, I was at one stage concerned that the neighbours might think I was trying to kill her.

Went to bed with an extreme headache
