	Lovely to see that Sylvia is now home, though I think it will be a while before she is 'back on form' ! Lots of love Sylvia <3 <3 <3 Dea Xxx

	Just going to take a look at your link LK - hope they keep safe walking around London at night ! Well done to them though - it sounds like a very good cause. Re the flu jab, I have to have it every year now and this is the first time I have felt quite so poorly with it. Usually the arm is VERY painful for about a week but for me, the benefits outweigh the negatives. - I just cannot afford to get flu nowadays - it would certainly see me in hospital and, very likely, even worse! You have to decide for yourself though. Dea Xxx

	Good morning one and all. I am sure you will be pleased to hear that our Sylvs is now home and doing well. She is tired - as is to be expected but, no doubt, she will be back 'treading' these boards in no time at all. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D Um.......have never really tried an exotic breakfast before, so I guess now is the time to start. Just getting my plate and hoping Dea leaves me something to try. The chap next door is having something done to his chimney and they are going to repoint ours as well......lots of banging and clattering has been going on but it's all quiet now. Hope he ain't fallen orf the roof :-S Better go my shower I think.... ~~~~

	If anyone feels able to help here OH and daughter are doing a 15 mile walk for charity on Friday through London at night. It is called the Carrots night walk and they are raising money for the charity 'Fight for Sight' who research eye conditions to help prevent blindness. This is a very worthy cause and they have been training loads for it.

	As NHS contractors working with the elderly we have been told we get priority for the flu jab but I have heard so many horror stories I have not had it. My oldest had one several years ago and ended up in Guys hospital on steroids.

	Jeeraka Kanji or Daliya Vege pakoras or paneer pakoras Vege Samosas rather hot & spicy. Vege Korma - mild Naan bread with fruit chutney or apple sauce. Garlic Naan. Folded over Roti filled with spicey scrambled eggs (has turmeric, coriander, spring onions, cumin, deseeded tomatoes and yoghurt - so they are fairly mild) Poori .... which are bready type balls fried in oil.. gluten free. Potato Parathas... for Gins I found some bacon in Sylvia's hidey hole so that is there if you want to add it to your meal... I don't do Punjabi/HIndi sweet foods, they are too icky gooey for me. So there are strawberry muffins, apricot shortcake and blueberry danish. Organic coffee, Tea, and Milo... or Almond honey milk. All the flour used is gluten free... <3

	Gosh you have good hearing Gins... I do hope Dea is feeling a lot better.... these darn flu injections can certainly make you feel miserable. I had a small lump removed from my shoulder before winter set in here and at the same time I had my flu injection... when I went back a week or so later to get the stitches out etc the nurse asked how it had been. I said it was fine it was the flu injection that was the curse.. and she said she had had the same reaction to hers. So Dea my darling at your request one Indian breakfast coming up Persie :-)

	Got to Sytners this morning to drop the car off and pick up courtesy car Met by the MD...Good morning Mrs xxxxx....guided to reception.....anything I wanted and all the morning papers and staff calling me by name Next....Mrs xxxx you are a Utd fan? ( he saw the badge in the car) Yes I am, for my sins! Would you be interested in two VIP tickets to the next home game....5 star meal, tour of the club, free drinks and a meeting with the players? Well yes, that would be nice! Also, free key rings, which cost something I wouldn’t pay for and of course the car 'healed' and cleaned! That’s what I call service....and while ever I can pay for it I will, otherwise it’s the local garage!
