    There are some horrible colds around.  Hope you are starting to improve.  

    Good news about the internet and the test results though.

    Aghhh I have just lost a message. to summarise I am feeling a bit better although Mr LH is quite poorly. Iam actually able to do a little bit and have my first breakfast for several days. THe only money spent has been on cough medicine, honey lemons etc but I know those have cost a small fortune. I will sort it out next week .
    Off now to clear the kitchen and give it a clean as nothing done this week other than washing up and spill wiping.

    Glad to hear you are rallying a little, @ladyholly. I have heard there are some dreadful cold lergies doing the rounds.

    I don't think I have ever had a cold like this and certainly don't want to repeat the experience. My sympathy to anyone else with it.

    Feeling ok today although still coughing a lot and somewhat sn***. However Mr LH has spent most of the day in bed. I went shoppingg this morning and have actually made a start on shopping for Christmas. My usual shoppingg day tomorrow but I think it will be left until Wednesday to see how Mr LH is and then possibly get a taxi if he is still poorly. One good thing tea is tasting like tea agin as it had a very chemical flavour while I waas feelin rough.

    Manged to clean the remaining kitchen cupboards but having done that and the shopping I was done for. Dusting and hoovering done yesterday.

    I hadnt booked the field for Bear today as it has been so muddy and he didnt seem to like it much. As it happens it has been  good job as neither of us are fit to go and it has poured with rain almost all day. We had a very wet lunchtime walk when he was on his best behaviour and when we got home he spent most of the afternoon on the sofa with me. 

    I still need to work out how much of the shopping was Christams and how much was normal shopping so I can transfer the money.

    Anyway I am off to watch the rest of Secrets of the supermaket and then take Bear for his walk.
