I have known a couple of people with BP and it cleared up fast in both cases, so I am confident the same will be true in your case.<BR/><BR/>And thanks for the Tana French book!! A lovely surprise to get that, I had no idea I had screeched in under the wire of your fiendishly difficult competition. You give a tired old blogger cheer!

Now I have trouble remembering who I am. ;o)Uriah Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02046023583067265187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938060587020568315.post-32565942238537101642008-08-30T14:38:00.000+01:002008-08-30T14:38:00.000+01:00You and Clooney should make a film together.You and Clooney should make a film together.mybillcriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02350478005243505108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938060587020568315.post-10608822011774672222008-08-30T14:08:00.000+01:002008-08-30T14:08:00.000+01:00Blimey!
