The only family news this week was Sarah falling foul of a sickness bug that refused to go away. She went down with a headache and continually threw up on anything she ate or drank. Despite two visits to the Doctors and a trip to Kettering hospital today, she is still ill. However, during the last hour, she has asked for a jacket potato, we shall see what happens with that! The tablets don’t stay down for long, hopefully, a King Edward will have more staying power.

My highlights of the week were that I cleaned out the greenhouse ready for the winter and then I waterproofed the garage roof.

Jamie’s highlight was that he still has the same girlfriend (a whole week now). Her name is Lara, unfortunately, her surname is not Croft.

Sue has been tired all week keeping Sarah company throughout the night.

Nan actually remembered to ring me (twice) this week. Not a lot of news, except Noel’s father, had died of cancer but she didn’t know when the funeral was. Noel is an old-school friend.

I am afraid I haven’t heard from Charlotte, but that means things are fine.  I believe they are thinking of where to go on holiday, they seem to have more than teachers!!
