mums toe is healing slowly,chiropodist was pleased with the big toe,just small one still bad,nurse came and dressed it,and has left me load of dressings,as shes now away for xmas hols. pleased how it looks and,give her her due,has done good job.
i sent off long letter of complaint to housing trust about bathroom door,caught my bloody toe under it.and today,had email from their Health and safety officer. having a meeting at mine soon to look at it. good.
Now,please can i just say a few words about some emails that are being circulated,there are several variations,but all the same theme. that basically,if you receive an email, ( and here are the ones i know,marked merry christmas,happy christmas,yule log,festive greetings,happy holidays,) even if its from a friend,dont open it. that it may conceal a new deadly computer virus.
This virus is supposed to be called an "olympic torch" virus,and when email is opened,it immediately gets into your adress book,duplicates itself,sends itself to all your contacts,then ......................it burns out sector Z on your hard drive. there is no known defence,it was discovered only yesterday,CNN calling it the most destructive virus ever,Mcafee got no defence,Microsoft are in a panic. sounds awful. and it asks that you forward the warning to evryone you know. AND IT IS COMPLETE GARBAGE. THERE IS NO SUCH THING,NO VIRUS,ENTER OLYMPIC TORCH VIRUS INTO SEARCH,YOU WILL FIND LOADS OF INFO. COMPLETE AND UTTER RUBBISH.
This chain email caught me out last year. i sent it to every tom,dick and harriet i knew. my face was red for weeks. i wasnt alone.many others did too. then it was osama bin laden is dead email title. but with xmas here,and many of us sending greetings,its particularly nasty. if you get one of these chain mails,please remember it was sent to you in good faith,and the person sending it is not to blame. take care all

Pleased your Mums toe is coming on well ,Thanks for the info on the virus thing ,lets know the outcome of your meeting with the guy from the council re the door ...love Jan xx
Good to hear your mum's toe is healing now, Mort.
The Housing Trust certainly made a b**** up of your refurbishment.
If in doubt over an email story, check it out on Snopes.com. I've been where you were as well...
Glad you mum's toes is better. There are also scam emails going around about banks. I had three from what looked like my bank in every detail telling me that inappropriate transactions had been made on my account and that therefore the account had been frozen. Of course, it has not been and I forward the emails to the bank. They are also going round about Abbey and Nationwide as well so ignore. If you give your details they will clear you out. Thanks for your e-card! Please pop by and visit my journal sometime.
