Mel cant make the wheel as he is quite ill at present.
Has come down with something really bad and is waiting to see a doctor.
He is quite pissed off about not making it to see you but will be in touch when he's better.

Mel, send someone out to your nearest health food store and get a bottle of elderberry extract. It's the first thing someone should start taking when they ge a cold or flu type feeling. It super charges your immune system. I start taking a table spoon every four hours the first sign of a cold or flu.
I hope your down time is short!
