This week has been a bit rough to say the least. I have managed to continue to work despite headaches and nausea, not sure why but not ill enough to not go. DD though has had a virus along with Son no 1 and his girlfriend. They have all had coughs, sore throats, headaches and very high temperatures. DD has also now developed shingles which I am told is rare in children.

Everyone feels a lot better now and hope that next week we can get some things done like a bit of gardening, sorting out my office stroke junk room and paperwork that has been piling up for a month.

Hope you all have a good weekend. Tonight I am selling stuff at Matlock Illuminations and tomorrow it is ther first conservation task of the season: pathwork.
