Exotic Bird of Passage

Irish Academic paid us a flying visit. She was in town to try to get a Mozambican visa, more fool her. Unfortunately it was on exactly the day that my incipient sore throat turned into full-blown 24-hour flu, so all I could do was lie in bed pathetically. Oddly enough it is the first time I have been ill since just before last Christmas, which was also the last time that Irish Academic paid us a visit. So now she thinks that I am constantly ill. Either that or I just don't want to talk to her and I am just putting it on.

Oops just remembered that I have invited Baby Squish round to dinner tomorrow and I may have inadvertently forgotten to mention it to LSS, which is a bit silly considering it is he who is going to have to cook the dinner. Maybe I should let him know...
