Hubby and I wander round thehouse singing "Swine Fever, Swine Fever", a la Bee Gees  We're fine thanks - the sniffles soon went (more to do with an oveheated cabin and a lack of sleep methinks) and all is well. Re Swine Flu in general. Although in my most gloomy moments I do think there will be some sort of pandemic to decimate world population (which, in the abstract would probably be a good thing, or not a bad thing) this doesn't sound like what I know about the 1918 pandemic (which killed more people worldwide than WW1). Then, fit young people were arriving at work feeling fine at 8am and dying by noon. No time for snivelling or hospital admissions. Fingers crossed that this is a something or nothing. Apparently 25s to 45s would be hardest hit. I don't want anything to happen to my children and I like all you people - who would I talk to?????? |

 DM, I just love how you manage to take the gravity out of situations, and leave us all with a smile on our face. Glad you and OH are feeling better (and I just know I'm going to be singing 'swine fever' all day now!!) |

Yes DM...thanks for popping that annoying rendition into my head...i will have to work hard to get rid of it.. I sent an email aboutthis whole situation to some friends in the USA today and mentioned Swine Fever...but my typing was a little too quick and i didn't hit the "S" quite hard enough and it came out as Wine Fever.....so that's what we are calling it here... |
