WOW-I can't believe it has been a year already and this board is almost a year old.
We will have to celebrate! :cheer:
Congratulations and Happy Anniversary!

Thanks Lecia, thanks for helping me in my recovery!!!!

You were pretty much through the worst of it before I came along! I was a mess when I joined-so thank you and all the other oldtimers who were there for me when the board was in its infancy.
We could do a walk down memory lane here!

i know i was past the worst bits, but you had so much great advice to offer me too, and knowledge that i now use :)
I cant wait to read up and get to know all the new members :)

i say Cheryl should buy us all round trip tickets to visit her down under and celebrate!
just in time for kylie's new X album! although i don't really care for her new single....it is very brit-psychedelic without the groovies.

im not sure i can afford to fly all of you over here...
wish i could it would the the biggest bum convention ever!!
Im still deciding if i like kylies new song.,..... umming and arrring at this stage!!

Cheryl,
I think that is great that you have recovered. Everyone on this forum has been a great help to me. I had Botox and I am doing very well but I am still very cautious. Yippie and I hope everyone heals quickly.

I owe Cheryl SO MUCH! Without this board (and Gareth) I may never had gotten the courage to have my life-changing surgery!!
All you guys are just too cool!

i'm still hoping this 2nd surgery changes my life and heals this blasted fissure! seeing other people recover does give me hope, although admittedly it makes me wonder what's wrong with me that i'm not healing.
congrats to all who have recovered! and fingers crossed for me!
