Mummy has picked up a nasty cold towards the back end of last week, that has culminated in a nasty bug over the weekend.  Olly woke up with red cheeks etc, suggesting that he was going to have yet another episode of his usual temperature etc, so we kept him away from school.  It actually didn’t turn into anything so he could probably have been OK to have been at school today.

The rain has arrived from the South (has battered the south of the country over the last few days) and there are presently something north of 300 flood warnings on nationwide.  Sadly, once again, the flood defences in many parts of the country are again being tested t the max 🙁   We should be A.OK here in Ossett, but there is definitely flooding in many roads where the road water guttering is unable to cope with the large quantity of water that is being forced on it.  The wind thankfully isn’t TOO strong at the moment although it is definitely significantly colder at the moment than it was just 5 days ago…
