--- In > Hi Shirley, We used to live in a home almost across from the huge
turkey house that housed turkeys and chickens for markets. Our home
burnt down on a thursday and my father was almost burnt to death the
following thursday when his car exploded and ended up in the dykes. If
it wern,t for a couple of gentleman that helped remove my father from
the car he would have died. It made the tv and papers big time back
than as I stayed with a british family when the home burnt down. Their
daughter and I were in grade six together. Cora
