So I'm sitting here streaming with a stinking cold. I ache all over, and my joints are really playing up. The inlaws have been on holiday to Austria for a week and came back late last night. MIL rang just before lunch and obviously heard how bad I sounded. I told her I felt like crap and hadn't got up till almost 11 and was still in my pj's. I told her I ached head to toe and was just dying on the sofa.
So.... what did she do?
Came round to see Charlie less than 2 hours later!!! And stayed for a whole fucking hour while I was sneezing my head off and snot streaming from every orific.
She hardly spoke to me, was only interested in seeing her grandson, and just made one comment how the winter sun really showed up how streaked windows were and how dusty everywhere was, didn't it!
Oh, and my present from Austria was a bottle of fucking 40% proof apricot schnaps!!!! Can she not see this bloody bump?!!
