There was a whole 'thread' at one point about someone having a phobia about gnus. <g>
Which was more hilarious than it sounds.
Now see, I found this hilarious, and I'm not sure why... I don't even get Paramount... maybe it's because of that song... was it by The Goons? "I'm a gnu..." laugh

Anyway back to my nick...

For those that haven't met me... No. I'm not German. smile

My real name isn't Helga, but it's similar to Helga, and there are several of them already on these boards... Besides, Helga is a sometimes nickname in real life so it's not that confusing for people who've actually met me.

There's a story about where Helga came from, it involves a holiday in Wales and a wok, so really, I'll do you all a favour and spare you the details laugh

Oh yes, and in the original thread, I mentioned the radio advert which was highly ironic when I was a archaeologist...

"My name is Princess Helga. I shall not be valking on ze mud...."

Helga smile

P.S. I hope you all realise, with all this talk of support groups, that the first step towards recovery is recognising that you have a problem.... wink
