My legs don't work any more. o_O
Every step I take involves a sharp stabbing pain in my left leg. My
right leg isn't working too well either.
Anybody know a cure for aching legs?

A doctor?
What sort of pain, when did it happen, was there something specific you were
doing when/before the pain started?

Hour after hour after hour of dancing. And now my legs don't work. >_<

LOL :-)
If you are not allergic to aspirin try some Nurofen it is a mixture of
Ibuprofen, Paracetamol and aspirin. Rest then take some gentle exercise (light
stretching) stop if it gets worse. If it is really bad go to the health centre
nurse.

On Friday night, this happened:
http://blog.orphi.me.uk/archives/378
And then, last night this happened:
http://blog.orphi.me.uk/archives/380
So, in summary, dancing for 2 hours straight on Friday night, and
dancing intermittendly for a further 4 hours on Saturday night. I must
be mad!
Damn, that was the best Saturday night in a while...! ;-)

Seconded. Though from the amount of activity, it just sounds like
fatigue, and some rest should be all that's needed.
Orchid, this sort of thing can happen after an intense workout (which
dancing the way you describe certainly qualifies as). It should happen
less the more you engage in the activity, though once a week may not be
frequently enough to overcome it.

Arguably I should have taken some pills while I was dancing... but those
aren't the legal kind. ;-)

I tend to avoid taking painkillers. I'd prefer to fix whatever the
actual problem is instead.
If it hurts when I stretch my leg muscles suddenly, maybe I shouldn't do
that for a while...

I wish I could find somewhere to practise my moves. But the largest
space in my house is about 3 feet square; you can't take many steps in
such a space. The back garden is an impenetrable jungle, so that's no
good either. And I don't particularly want to be watched.
I'm pretty sure the new Rock & Roll classes I'm taking will make me lose
a few pounds - if only in water content! o_O
