The blog ring lurgy has finally reached Gloucestershire! Charlie had a high temp earlier and had such aching hand he cried when he picked up his beloved cuddly whale. Poor lamb. Sent him back to bed for a few hours, he laid there rather pathetically and a dose of calpol and nurofen and 4 hours later, he seems fine. Still snotty but temp back to normal and achey hands disappeared.

Currently spotted doing the drying up and helping to prepare tonights roast chicken dinner.

I really hope he stays well enough to a) go to our friends tomorrow and b)enjoy centre parcs on Friday!
