This morning I returned the computers to Castlereagh School all set up ready to go. The IT lady there had made an urgent trip to Malaysia to be with her dying sister. Her sister is dying of lung cancer. She has never smoked!
As I returned home I drove past Bibra Lake and noticed a woman harvesting pomegranates from a large tree near the lake. I have a friend who has prostate cancer and he has been taking a pomegranate drink which is believed to slow the progress of the disease. The drink he has been taking comes from the U.S. and is very expensive. I rang him and we went to the lake equipped with bucket and a rake hoping to get some; alas the cockatoos had eaten every ripe or near-ripe pomegranate. In the same lake area when we were on our morning walks we followed the progress of figs ripening only to miss out on a feed when someone stripped the fruit off the tree before we could do the taste test. Goes to show...anything in the public domain is usually not so good.
Our daughter Helen is here now after her first day with pupils. She loves the school, teachers and kids.
