Secondly, I did indeed watch Kick Ass, with a couple of beers, hoping Melissa would have drifted off by the time I went to bed. She did not, and we were awake until at least 2am, her itching, me .... not sleeping.
We went to work via McDonald's for coffees and ploughed on with the day. Melissa went back to the doctors and he reluctantly gave her a small tube of hydrocortisone for the rash which her now spread to her thighs. On top of that we bought some calamine lotion and about a thousand cotton wool balls from Boots. None of these thing work to soothe her for any longer than about 10 minutes. I don't imagine we'll be sleeping too well again tonight.
The plasters have finished their work and it looks great in the room (I'm not going to call it a bathroom until there's a bath in there).
That cable is live. It's for a light switch that hasn't yet been fitted or sited yet.
I also received this in the post :
Oh yes. twenty seven pounds only. And a jaunty certificate type thing. It was totally worth eating all those Rowntree's Randoms.
This evening, Melissa is out at the moment, due back any minute. Then it's up to the in-laws for showers, then home for some tea. After that, a few drinks and a film for me and excessive itching and ointment application for Melissa.
Tomorrow promises to be Saturday. How very exciting.
See you then!
