Trapped! I've sent Dad to the local shop in search of Calpol while my two beloved invalids moan and groan and cough and play on the computer. Play on the computer? I thought you were supposed to be ill! Taking it in turns with the thermometer and the bathroom - quick, I'll check your temperature while the other one's got his head down the toilet - and keeping complicated records of the time each had Calpol and Nurofen to lower their temperature. Please God, please let this cough I've developed this morning just be a cough.

The Tesco delivery has arrived. With both boys not eating, it's going to be an interesting puzzle fitting everything in the fridge. Hmmm... what a shame, I'll have to have all the goodies! Still, it will make up for having no excuse not to do any housework. It'd be such a lovely day for a walk.

Now, where's the Benylin?
