No One Has To Die At 30!
Yes. I have been through Carousel and have arrived in the new world.
It was a perfect quiet birthday. Work was wonderful – the lovely lovely people I work with got me a new phone

Thank you for the e-cards, messages, emails, pokes tweets and comments. I love you all. You make it all worthwhile.

I am one of those incredibly irritating people who says, "No, don’t make a fuss." and who ‘doesn’t like to be the centre of attention’. And when a fuss isn’t made I feel let down and disappointed that my mind wasn’t read, when every noise out of my mouth says No to every plan. Because
