The ones you see are the ones who aren't off sick.

What is a wonder is, considering the hazardous environment, how many are off with non-infectious conditions like "anxiety and depression".

My coz is a consultant and she's in hospital due to pneumonia (after a week of bad flu) rather than for work right now....doctors and nurses aren't immune even though it looks like they are given how much they're subjected to all sorts of illness!

She's still joking on FB whilst being stuck in the hospital bed watching netball at 4am instead of not sleeping, I think it's that jovial attitude that gets them through their work day....

Woke up to thick fog this morning, a bit of sunshine this afternoon, the rest of the week until Friday afternoon rain and more rain.

Thanks

Why bring a big wet hairy dog into a camera shop? I had to get the mop out after they left. So selfish.

I didn't have a camera to hand 😁. I guess you've all seen enough muddy puddles recently anyway.
