I am so full of admiration for them. I. Also marvel at the bravery and dedication of those who go to help with Ebola treatment too. And I wonder what soldiers feel about it. Their work usually involves different dangers to the isilent threat of disease.Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16539163.post-32515708818042388372014-11-16T19:58:35.093+00:002014-11-16T19:58:35.093+00:00Actually, Adullamite..I watched a segment on TV on...Actually, Adullamite..I watched a segment on TV only a few nights ago about camels and it was stated therein that our camels here in Aus...and we have many of them in the outback...they were brought here mainly by the Afghan traders - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_feral_camel<br /><br />During the programme it was also stated that our Aussie camels are the best in the world...healthwise etc.<br /><br />http://www.australiangeographic.com.au/news/2010/02/history-of-australia%E2%80%99s-muslim-cameleers/<br /><br />The TV segment was about the health benefits of camel milk. It was very interesting. <br /><br />It concentrated on a particular fellow who is farming camels purely for their milk..operating not unlike a dairy farmer The milk apparently has properties that help autism sufferers, ridding them almost completely of their symptoms, if not all of their symptoms.<br /><br />It's not cheap, naturally, but apparently many swear by its properties.<br /><br />Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16539163.post-48649848394248209632014-11-16T19:46:29.208+00:002014-11-16T19:46:29.208+00:00Kay, Not really a service just a 'gathering...Kay, Not really a service just a 'gathering' and it was good.

No! Okay...well, I guess you do have picture-proof that those camels are real! ;)<br /><br />That lady sounds very interesting and it would be easy to fall into conversation with her; to listen to her story.<br /><br />I never go out at night any more other than perhaps once a year to my landlords' annual Christmas gathering (which is due again on 17th Dec). I venture far to attend it, too. mM cabin is down one end of this 3 acre block, and their home is at the other end! But I do drive up because I never go empty-handed being armed with food and a bottle or two of wine. Already I've made a pile of meatballs that are waiting patiently in my freezer.Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16539163.post-31088821482464759222014-11-15T19:15:31.318+00:002014-11-15T19:15:31.318+00:00That sounds an interesting evening...and so now yo...That sounds an interesting evening...and so now you're a real author whose books are bought.
