    I don't want to sound patronising, but I admire this woman for coming on and speaking so well.

    Life has dealt her a **** start, but she is doing her best, and doing more than most.

    Maybe because they are reasonably functional.

    Thalidomide victims got a horrendous deal in life :(

    could have been worse. Could have had the horrible life of a Westlife member who had to work for 12 out of 14 years before retirement!

    AmDub, you'll have to give more then 2 bottles of Middleton to get rid of him! :D

    I am feeling guilty about leaving JonAnon all on his own now :(

    Having said that ... Meh, he seemed happy enough last time I saw him. Could have been the Stockholum Syndrome kicking in.

    I didn't see the hands attached on until she started waving them around. In fairness, I was looking from an aesthetic point of view.

    Wikipedia is great.

    thalidomide intercalates (inserts itself) into DNA in G-C (guanine-cytosine) rich regions.[54][55] Owing to its glutarimide part, (S) thalidomide fits neatly into the major groove of DNA at purine sites.[53] Such intercalation impacts upon the promoter regions of the genes controlling the development of limbs, ears, and eyes such as IGF-I and FGF-2. These normally activate the production of the cell surface attachment integrin αvβ3 with the resulting αvβ3 integrin dimer stimulating angiogenesis in developing limb buds. This then promotes the outgrowth of the bud (IGF-I and FGF-2 are also both known to stimulate angiogenesis). Therefore, by inhibiting the chain of events, thalidomide causes the truncation of limb development. In 2009 this theory[53] received strong support, with research showing "conclusively that loss of newly formed blood vessels is the primary cause of thalidomide teratogenesis, and developing limbs are particularly susceptible because of their relatively immature, highly angiogenic vessel network."[56]

    So who is old enough to remember Adam Ant?

    He was just slightly before my time. Musical Youth were my first favourite band.

    They must be due a comeback soon. "Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side ..."
