How kind! Hubby just brought me a cup of tea and a mince pie. I’m upstairs keeping warm because this bug has still got me. I need to get up and go and do some shopping, but I was just reading the end of a book and then suddenly there’s a plate with a pie and a brew of tea on it appearing through the door!

Anyway, I’d better drink the tea before it goes cold. Then get my act together. The shops might be closing early today. If I feel a bit better we might celebrate the new year tonight, I just hope there aren’t lots of fireworks!
