    I have to agree Twinks Hobnobs are the best I've ever tasted!!! They don't last long in our house.
    Been to drs. As suspected, I've got a chest infection-on antibiotics so hopefully will be feeling better in a couple of days when they've kicked in. Thanks for all the hugs and kind words-it means alot to me.
    OH has decided we will celebrate valentine's when I'm recovered-and he's even gone off the idea of a free valentines and I think he might even take me out for a meal!!! :D It's a rare occurence coz we've both got too lazy and tend to not be bothered about going out coz we're normally so tired... and then I wonder why we have no proper circle of friends to socialise with near where we live.
    Right, I'm going coz I'm waffling.
    Note to self: make some Twinks hobnobs when recovered

    I received this yesterday and thought I'd share it.

    As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom,
    In water there are bacteria. In a number of carefully controlled trials,
    Scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day,
    At the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of
    Escherichia coli coli, (E. Coli) - bacteria found in faeces. In other
    Words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poo.
    However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila,
    Rum, Whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a
    purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.
    Remember: Water = Poo, Wine = Health
    Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of !!!!!!.
