	Hello Girls, Jean, will be thinking about Jeff tomorrow, hope all goes well at the hospital for him. How is Debra getting on lately? I hope all is going well for her. You are a busy bee making all those cards....you put me to shame.lol!! Take care. Sister-in-law rang me last night to tell me that my brother is in hospital. He has Cellulitis in his elbow so had to go in so that he can have the antibiotics intravenously. Not sure what Cellulitis is exactly, just hope that he will be OK, which I'm sure he will be...sister-in-law although concerned didn't sound unduly worried. Speak to you all soon. Love, Sallie.xxx

	Hi Dutch Found this on Wikipedia for you : Nipissing is a township in central Ontario, Canada, on Lake Nipissing in Parry Sound District. Nipissing was surveyed between 1874 and 1881, and was incorporated in 1888. Among the first settlers in the area were the Chapman and Beatty families. Nipissing village annexed Gurd Township in 1970. The township also contains a community named Nipissing, which is located on the South River near Chapman's Landing, on the South Bay of Lake Nipissing. The township includes the communities of Alsace, Christian Valley, Commanda, Hotham, Nipissing and Wade's Landing. Hope it helps I just put Nipissing in Google, there was more info too Linda xxx <3 <3 <3

	Hi girls, thought I would have a look at the threads while I am up for a while, can't be doing with staying in bed. Well what a thing to do hey? Slipped on the kitchen floor on Wed night, it hurt all night so I asked hubby to take me to hospital early the next morning, got x-rayed nearly straight away then the day is a blur after that. I have a zimmer but it is a big one and the flat is only small, so oh is pushing me about on my wheeled office chair. My jerky foot is worse now the pot is on and driving me mad. Going for my comfort food now, mash and fish with white sauce, only thing I ever want when I'm down. Thanks for all your good wished. Hope everyone else is ok. Love Carole xx

	Caz, good to see you up and being pushed around. It is so frustrating for you I'm sure. you'll have to stop polishing that floor!!!! Comfort food to me is shepherds (or cottage) pie. Lazy food, doesn't need much chewing. I suppose fish, mash and white sauce is the same. :-D

Member Since: March 2008 Posts: 4,590 Send Message	Bless you Caz, I hope you feel more comfortable soon, and that you enjoyed your fish and mash. I love the fish in parsley sauce. Roly doesn't like it, so I make it just for me, yummy. Guess what girls, my cousin from Essex sent me an e.mail today. She had an e.mail from my dads,sisters daughter (my cousin) in Australia, apparantly she's been trying to trace me. I have never heard of this cousin, but I know that her mother was my dads elder sister. I have sent her an e.mail, but not given her to much information. But it does seem strange to me, that my other cousins, who both live out in OZ, dont appear to know anything about her. So watch this space, I may have another family member that I knew nothing about. I hope you are all o.k. Take care of yourselves, love to you all. Mo xxx

	Oh what lovely news a new baby boy, congratulations to all, parents and grandparents. Ann I have cleaners come in to do the cleaning and they don't polish the floor, just wash it, I still don't know why I slipped. I have the cast on for 6-7 weeks but with having cancer in my bones of the leg he doesn't know if it will heal properly. I have to go back to see the doctor tomorrow so we will see how it goes. Love Caz
