    Savoury slices

    I made the savoury slices this morning, and they were excellent, full of flavour, could taste each ingredient (I had to try one straight from the oven, yummy). Could really recommend these, and will definitely be making them again. Thanks for the recipe.

    Type 2 diabetes and bone fracture healing time

    I am a type 2 diabetic, on Metformin. 8 weeks ago I managed to fracture my finger, and have had to wear a splint for that amount of time. I was told I should wear it for 6 - 8 weeks at the fracture clinic, but now, having removed it, I find it still misshapen, swollen and painful if I touch...

    Nannab. What a good idea, Sugarless Sue. I had to re-register, give new e mail address, new screen name and also new password. What a trial that was, as I am not terribly computer literate. Anyhow, enough rambling, I am now Dillydog, but used to be Nannab. I regularly look in on this site...
