Sunday:
- Philip went home late morning, and Hugh mostly did his own thing for the rest of the day, although he did watch a show(?) with Eric in the evening. He also cooked dinner for both of them, improvising a dish of chicken with cream cheese and spinach sauce.
- Dan is very ill, and spent most of the day in bed.
Monday:
- Dan is still very ill, and spent most of the day in bed.
- While supervising Q in the courtyard Dan had a surreal encounter with a weirdly tame rat, which Q watched pootling around for at least ten minutes but completely failed to try to eat or play with even when it came within a few inches of him (which it did several times).
- Hugh cooked himself an improvised, complicated multi-part lunch and learned about the importance of planning the timing of different dishes so they are ready at the same time.
- no rapier for Hugh tonight as both drivers are too sick to make it to town safely.
Tuesday:
Wednesday:
- Dan: no singing as Eleanor is away this week
Thursday:
- Dan: roller derby, AYCC meeting – didn’t go due to illness
Friday:
- Hugh’s swimming lesson
Saturday:
- Little Bit of Rapier training day and feast. Dan was too sick to come, Hugh came but didn’t fight. He helped Suzanne in the kitchen and serving the feast instead.
Didn’t finish this entry due to getting the same lurgi the kids did and being too sick to feel like doing anything all week.
