Re: [lace-chat] honiton book on ebay
Hi Jenny - That's Susanne Thompson's first book. The one that is proving so hard to find is her second one..."Further Steps..." I think Batsford really ought to reprint that book, because a lot of people would like to find it!

[lace-chat] Urgent Help Required
Dear Friends, I have a problem and am calling upon your wise counsel to help me solve it. Tonight at Choir Practice we had a woman in her 60s audition, and frankly, she's not up to the task. Apparently she already sings in the Choir at the U3Age University (for senior citizens) and in the next couple of days I need to send her a snail mail telling she has failed her audition. I was just hoping that someone out there may have had to handle a similar situation. I would hate to hurt this woman's feelings any more than I surely will, and definitely don't want to send her into acute depression. Many thanks in anticipation David Downunder in Ballarat To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[lace-chat] Secret Pal thank you
I got the most precious box from my Secret Pal in Australia. It had some liquor chocolates, sweet little pooh magnet, and a neat little double gold picture frame. I also got a sweet little tablet that my daughter cabbaged onto to take to National competition for Drama teams in Washington D. C. and a priceless Australian flag pin which she worn for good look on her shirt.Thanks so very much. I loved it all.

[lace-chat] health tips?
I know amongst are ranks are many experts on almost everything, and now I am seeking suggestions for anything that can help me with bronchitis. I caught a cold about a week ago, and just as it was about to go away, it was very rude and turned into acute sinusitis and acute bronchitis. My doctor gave me an Rx for Levaquin, which is starting to do its thing, and I've been drinking lots of chicken broth to the extent that I think I'm going to sprout feathers anytime now. I've also been having lots of fresh-squoze orange juice and the hot water-vinegar-honey thing. At least my fever's gone down from where it was for two days (104.1) to a more manageable 99.2. Anyone in lace-land have any other old-fashioned (or new-fashioned) aids to getting bronchitisi/sinusitis to hurry up and go away? I do want to thank "Dr." Tamara Duvall, however, with providing us with the usual humour almost everyday to read -- laughter is excellent medicine!! (Even though it initiates a coughing fit...)

Re: [lace-chat] health tips?
For the sinusitis try inhaling the steam from boiling water (or as hot as you can stand - sub boiling, probably) with something like menthol dissolved in it - *if* you have a nostril sufficiently unblocked for the steam to penetrate. (I usually can't breathe through my nose when I have full blown sinusitis.) The only other advice is rest, rest and more rest even after you start to feel better.

[lace-chat] :) Fwd: Lena & Ole
Definitely not PC, but the "Lena and Ole" jokes are now ranking second (after the "blonde" ones) in frequency when it comes to "serial" ones (could it be that Polacks are "out", and blonde Swedes are "in"?). And many are funny... From: R.P. Lena folded and put away Ole's underwear. Ole took out a pair the next morning and noticed there was powder all over the crotch area. He started to shake the powder out and said, "Darn it, Lena, I vish you vouldn't put so much talcum powder in my undervear." Lena replied, "Dat not talcum powder, Ole.
