SMALL: "I can't have given you my cold - I've still got it!"
Bless her heart. All these years she's gone around breathing heavily all over people whenever she had a cold, she's honestly believed that if she could give it to someone else she would no longer have it herself...
The kids were worryingly good travelling to and from club tonight, and I felt tremendously fond of them all. But only in small doses. It's always nice to hand them back to their parents, come home and shut the door again to peace and solitude!
Bit worried about my volunteer Cyril in work. He's one of our stalwarts - has been running a large project for school volunteers for over a decade now. But he's turning 80 next year, and hasn't been able to come into the office for a couple of weeks now as his back has been really bad. Bless him, he frequently drives me up the wall when he's in, he's so obsessive compulsive, but then when he isn't around I get all worried about him. I hope he's better soon. Boss has had a bright idea that maybe we could go and visit him at home next week, but only time will tell if that comes off. She was in the office today, before and after a lengthy meeting, but has now gone swanning off to Paris for the rest of the week with her Rich Boyfriend. Half her luck.
