Dear Swine Flu Jabbers,

I have the seasonal flu jab every year and this year I had both the swine flu jab as well as the seasonal flu jab. I got the swine flu jab on my non-dominant arm.

I must say the swine flu jab arm was much sore compared to the normal one. I had it 2 days ago and it is still sore now. The worst was the first night after the jab, I dare not even turn during sleeping as I was aware of the pain.

Then now it is getting better. During the first day I also had headache, not sure it's caused by the swine jab or not seasonal jab. But then I never got headache with seasonal jab.

Definitely more sore getting the swine flu jab.

Dear Edinburgh to Belfast Flyers

It is unusual for pilots to warn passengers that the flight will be 'bumpy'. Signifying that it will be a turbulent flight. Flying on a small plane, ie Fokker, is never that stable, but yesterday it was pretty shaky. I can feel the plane swaying from left to right, rotating. I must say it is not an easy job for the pilot to control the plane with 15/16 knots of wind. I always thought that turbulence can only caused by difference in pressure.

The worst I have experienced so far was on an international flight, big plane, dropping down 100 feet, well, describing it as like on a roller coaster would be similar.

Dear Terrorists and Counter-terrorists,

They say the world is never in peace, as where there are people, there will be difference in opinion.

We do what we think is right, but it might not be agreed by others.

Terrorists are named due to the effect of their terror.

Their actions are extreme and drastic; and can involve fatality.

So much things have been done to prevent terror from happening.

Have they been effective?

It is important to understand why they do it.

Any normal people can become terrorist if their thinking change.

When Blair was on his post, he was pro-active.



But not so much of Brown.

Dear Frequent Flyers,

Look carefully, this is a real picture, with the tail broken, you can see the sky outside, you will be lucky to be 'on' the plane, some are may be 'flying' on the air.

How many of us know that travelling in car has a higher chance of dying than travelling in a plane?

But most of us fear to travel by the air, this is due to the dramatic effect especially during landing.

And sometimes, what the pilots call 'a slight turbulence' actually means a drop of more than 100 feet.

Most people are fine travelling in a car, as you have the control of your own life, at least you die in your own hands if anything happens.

If you are flying, your life is basically owned by the pilot. Pray he is a good one.

As I always say, some things are beyond your own control.

You can control your car to prevent accidents, but you cannot prevent other people crashing into you.

The pilots can be the most skilful, but they cannot stop the birds from flying into the engine.

Yes, luck is the word, although you can increase or reduce it, that's the fun part.

Dear BBC News Watchers,

Sometimes we obediently trust whatever news that is reported, whether it is on BBC or other channels.

Although news should be a fact of life, when it is reported, its element can be changed.

As always, it's human nature to add own opinion.

I believe all reporters are trying to be neutral, but not all of them.

Just be careful when you listen to news.
