Thanks x

I know it's all over the place and seems ott but that death rate in Mexico seems to be hurtling up - doubled since this time yesterday. those 2 in Scotland have it (just confirmed) and those they have mixed with since their return are now showing symptoms.

maybe the upside could be that it will have an effect on people's personal hygiene - the number of times I see grown people cough and sneeze without even putting up a hand is just disgusting. so perhaps these will think a little and start taking a bit more care.

of course I must just ask you Jean, when was the last time you re-read The Stand pmsl

sorry to hear about your sister Hayley, hope something is sorted out soon

I'm sorry to hear that Hayley(: Hope they find out what is wrong with your sister very soon.

Jean.

No it aint funny Hayley - I knew someone who had a holiday in Africa once and came back and was poorly for over a year before they found out what it was - not funny at all, when your holiday is supposed to have done you good, and you are then poorly!

Could they contact the Hospital of Tropical Medicines (in Liverpool I think) and ask their opinion?

That's not so funny, Hayley - hope they sort her out soon

edited coz I sound a right morbid cow..lol

Whilst I would agree that the press play it to the hilt, and I have had a flu and pnumonia jab, I won't 'be going out for a while. My immune system is not very good, and you don't know who'se in the queue at M .... isons, next to you, do you.

Hayley - sorry to hear your sister is poorly - has she been tested for intestinal worms? sounds gruesome, but apparently these can infiltrate the body via the skin, and cause all sorts of problems.

Well I do descend from pirates David, what do you expect lol

That's cheap Jax - get me a couple of dozen when they come in, will you? Ta! ))))

Them sparrers Uggers, are your "mates"??? bit like the vermin under yer hedge then eh? )))))

We have been back from our holiday from an South American country since 31st March and my sister is still ill and I mean ill I am worried sick about her, she has had that many tests and they still can not find whats up with her...

Down the farmers market 6 for a pound lol

lol Jax how mercenary is that:))

Jac, my sparrers are my mates, bless em:)

Where do you buy cheap Sparrers Jax? ))))))

I personally think its brill when the media hype up all these animal related illnesses, cos the more fearful members of society stop eating said animal and it gets cheaper to buy ;o)

I hear they attack like falcons Uggers! you keep away from them sparrers)))))

I got fed up running away from sparrers last time...

Ay Jean - I was watching the news channel today at the hospital with friend, and every two blooming minutes they were updating the death rate and the possible numbers of those who have contracted the disease together with the countries affected. Very good viewing I thought for those patients waiting for treatment!!!

I have seen documents regarding Bird Flu though, and it makes frightening reading and now I'm retired I wont be in line for a jab(((((

Hey ho........................tomorrow it will be some MP's expenses again I expect))))

Yeah Jac... forewarn by all means but hecky thump love they do go over the top a bit don't you know :)

We fly to Mexico on the 13th of May travel agents says all is fine, i hope so cost us a fortune and so looking forward to getting away and leaving troubles behind.
