Feeling sorry for myself so am turning to TIBB who I know will cheer me up.

Story so far - went to Scotland with OH and best friends for Christmas and New Year

Everything fine until Monday - great food, fantastic hotel, wonderful entertainment, amazing company etc etc.

THEN

Coming back from shopping trip to Glasgow I was descending from this huge great four wheel drive car we hired and slipped.

DISASTER

There was me unable to move, back completely seized up and former nearest and dearest plus former best friends were in complete hysterics. They were doubled up (no pun intended) and all they could say was it could only happen to me.

So upshot was that there was me in a posh hotel in Scotland pretending to be a posh bird on New Year's Eve drinking ORANGE JUICE (not allowed alcohol because of medication) surrounded by 'thousands' of completely drunken people.

Still I did get to admire fully the piper in all his glory - what a pair of knees he had under that kilt.

Anyway am now laid up, with a pulled muscle in my back - told to rest which is driving me mad I hate being inactive. OH is busy passing the tale (or his version) of how I came to be injured. Needless to say it involves whisky, dancing on tables and haggis - as if!!

Still it makes a change from his version of what happened at the TIBB convention. All I will say is - if only!!

Anyway all sympathy greatly accepted and a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL - things can only get better
