After taking the Teenage One to the doctors yesterday to get her lurgy sorted out, I began to feel the distinct beginnings of a sore throat last night.

My wife, the Wise One, stated that it was probably sympathy pains with the daughter, rather like a man getting pregnancy signs when his wife is expecting.

Er, no, not really. Went to bed at 10.30 last night after taking the first anti depressant, in attempt to sleep it off, up again at just after midnight, couldn't sleep. Went to bed, eventually, at 4am again, and got up at 10.30.

Complete with a raging headache, stiff neck, and sore throat. These feel like really strong sympathy pains to me.

Went straight into recovery position, that is, a couple of cigarettes and a couple cups of strong sweet tea with three Anadin Extra. The Tesco kettle we got about two months ago, and have already replaced once, has packed up again. It will switch on, and light up, but won't do anything else.

Every Little helps. Except Tesco's £5.00 kettles. Good job we kept the old one. Got this down from the loft and my belt, the one I've had for about 18 years, snapped, half way back down the loft ladder. Nothing lasts for long these days,does it? LOL

The belt is British, and has lasted 18 years. The kettle is made in China, and lasted 6 weeks (2nd replacement). Just goes to prove British is best!

Okay got the cup of tea made, had the Anadins, took a Vitamin C tablet (which I've laid off with recently because of that pain in the Left hand side and I tried to eliminate most things to see what was causing it).

Then came the Decision. I rang up work to say I wouldn't be going in tonight or tomorrow. Sleep needed! Oh, and that I feel really really lousy.

Thats cost me about £100 aftter stoppages. at the moment, couldn't care less, although I know I'll regret it payday.

And the Big Thing about today? well, I rang the Wise One at work to inform her of my (coragous) decision in not working. She is now really concerned, bearing in miind the secret tablet episode yesterday. She thinks that it's my brain, not my body, playing up. The Depression is a big issue in our house, as I knew it would be. The son has been told, because he was different with me last night as well.

Why did I have to leave those tablets on the table yesterday?

After ringing the Wise One at work, I had to go to Fakenham to get petrol. Drove all the way thyere with the windows closed and heater on in beautifully strong sunshine. Loverly - at last I was warm!

And now, I've had a brilliant idea. I'm going to be a scriptwriter!

I shall take my daily life, write it up, like I've done here, and submit it as a script for Mr Bean!! Many riches await me!! Well, you get lots of money for being unique, don't you? And no-ones life's more unique than mine!

Until Tomorrow

Paul
