Everyone's Gone.

The ever-delightful [livejournal.com profile] snycock left on the 7.15 for Manchester Airport and her plane home. We just got back from waving off [livejournal.com profile] mab_browne  and [livejournal.com profile] cross_stitchery  on their way (first class! The decadent young monkeys) to York. We've had a splendid couple of days together. Because of the lurgi, no one was really up to much so we've mostly lolled around and watched a variety of quality DVDs; Cruise of the Gods (again *g*), DUG, SST2, a whole load of TS and TS-related stuff like the cascade con discs, Action, even an episode of Robin Hood from 1975 with David Dixon camping it up outrageously as Prince John for Paul Darrow's Sheriff of Nottingham. Last night I introduced them to the joys of QI and the Jonathan Ross show. :o)

[livejournal.com profile] mab_browne  and [livejournal.com profile] snycock went out fully intending to walk on the moors yesterday but were driven home by the weather. Cold and wet is truly our world and t'moors are no place for those with a lurgi.

Now they've gone on their way. My house is an empty shell. My gosh, it's quiet in here. *g*

I've just had a tidy, thrown the towels in the washing machine, hurled some parsnips and celery into the stove in the hope of soothing soup later and now Mark and I are lying on the bed, completely wasted, for yea, verily, we are both still decidedly poorly. Neither of us have had much sleep because of the incessant cough. [livejournal.com profile] mab_browne 's not too bad (though she has the cough), [livejournal.com profile] snycock 's still coughing too and poor [livejournal.com profile] cross_stitchery  is far from well.

What a group we've made for the last few days *g*. I hope all the other lurgi-struck fangirls are still amongst the living.

But I'm crashing out now. I may be gone some time...

You have the best icons

I aim to please. (o: See my shiny new one! *g* I must do something with one of m' Flake pictures...

We both feel absolutely bloody today, tbh. I don't know if it's the crash n burn after having a house full of guests but we're as bad as we were again. Hey ho, it is a most vicious microbe. I really hope Garett didn't get it. :o(
