Good morning everyone

JVH glad you only had a mild swine flu experience (tho it sounds horrible) - my mumma just turned 70 - she is very fit but does get awful chest infections with the flu. I had to call an ambulance on one occasion as she couldn't breathe - (I moved in for a week to take care of her) - as she was bedridden. It frightened me.

Today is a bit sad as the nephew I lost would have turned 27 today - happy birthday sweetheart. All I can do is take some flowers to the cemetary and make sure his mum dad and grandparents are ok.

My neice (5yrs) is spending the weekend with me. I have been downloading kids recipes as she loves to cook (aaaaaahhhhh!) - but I'm very excited she is coming.

Hope everyone enjoys their Friday - it's windy, freezing and raining here!
