Hello everyone,

I'm writing to you today from in front of my newly arrived 17" flat screen LCD monitor.

It arrived today and initial thoughts are..................fantastic.

I finished up getting the Philips 107S5 with a silver trim. It cost me $590.00 AUD from a computer dealer in Melbourne. This was a saving of over $200.00 on the cheapest 17" flat screen I coud buy in Devonport.

Looks a treat.

On the tooth front, I am surprised how quickly things appear to be healing. Very little pain today at the point of extraction and almost all the swelling has gone. Must be the benefit of a healthy lifestyle and diet that is helping the healing process.

Thanks to everyone who wrote in with tips and remedies from Bromelain, CoQ10 to the good old standby Oil of Cloves.

Pureed soup for tea last night with a bowl re-heated at work for lunch today. Last night for supper I had a bowl of sliced pear in their own juice topped with natural yoghurt.

Eating today hasn't been too much of a problem so it's back to solids.
