What have you been doing today?

Talking about adding things. My wife was telling me a story last week about a boss at IKEA.
Each year the staff would club together to buy him a birthday cake. One year he received a package which contained flour, eggs, a small bottle of milk and a few other ingredients along with a set of instructions on how to 'construct' his cake.
Apparently he wasn't amused and stormed off.

Sounds like a right pee nars.

Commiserations. We were thinking of looking for a U.K. break the week after next. We love the peaks but ruled out going North as it seems worse up there so looking South - poss Hampshire/IOW. Fingers crossed for your MIL.

My wife just been diagnosed with pneumonia, which she didn't know she had as she doesn't have a cough or any chest pain etc. Home treatment with antibiotics because it's safer than hospital.

@crystal ball. Hope your MIL is ok and things are not as bad as they may seem. Let us know how she gets on.

 

[sodthisforfun]

And you too Conny, hope all goes ok with your Mrs.

I'm going to have a great day - mother has been told to take a covid test and I have been elected to take her. 80 miles to my mothers then another 70 mile to the test station. Jeez that is a 300 mile round trip and I'm going to be stuck in the car with her for half of that. I may well go insane.

 

[sodthisforfun]

As maddening as parents can be, you miss them when they're gone.

You're a good son, 300 miles!
