Hi Glen,

Wow, this is a really interesting article. I have seen something advertised recently on the Discovery Channel about it. I'm really looking forward to seeing it.
What next eh!

Thanks,

Lozz.

Hi Glen,

The programmes you were referring to also aired today (Sunday 7/03/10). I recorded them so that I can watch them over again.
They ran for a total of 4 hours and I was glued to the tv. It was really exciting to see the new discoveries. I'm of the opinion that the young woman, and Tutankhamun's mother, is Nefertiti. The archaeologist, Joanne Fletcher did some research a couple of years ago on this mummy and had a pretty convincing argument for her being Nefertiti. It will be great to know for sure once and for all.

I'm off to our beloved Egypt in May, so I will have a good look around then and see what has been confirmed.

Thanks again for your info.

Regards,

Lozz.

Hi Lozz...not going anywhere at the moment..we booked for India for next xmas...but at the moment we have too much stress....Our 21 month old G/son has just had two major 15 hour operations for a very rare cancerous brain tumour..he is now awaiting for what treatment he is going to have...Radiotherapy here or go to the States for a new Proton Radiotherapy..we're just all over the place at the moment..hopefully we will hear something this week.
He will also have to have chemo afterwards, and a scan every month till he is 18..after that age we don't know, but the chances of it coming back again are 50% - 50%..its been a living nightmare.
He's a little fighter that is for sure, the surgeon he had is the only one who would take on the actual operations, he is supposed to be the best in the country, and he told us that an adult would not have survived it...so its all prayers at the moment.
Feeling ill ourselves with the stress of it all..

Hope you are keeping well?

Regards

Lin.
