No no no Rufus I was laughing WITH not AT grandad!
I thought he had made a couple of very funny comments so I showed a picture of a hermit crab coming out of it's shell and was congratulating grandad for coming out of his - seemed no one got it including you and grandad.
My comment was showing support for grandad, sorry it fell flat
I felt 'buddyism" with grandad - he was joining our group of those on the naughty step!
Two more cases of the virus here on the north west coast - it seems to have infiltrated into our main hospital and several staff have now come down with it. Very frightening and they think it has gone through the air conditioning system.
We are still keeping sane but a lot of bickering - thank heavens for those big sheds - OH spends a lot of time getting very dirty (not in an inappropriate way) in them.
Looks to be fine today so may get outside in the garden and there is always cooking to do. I hate housework so that is low on my list of things to do.
I's been difficult for my son in law's father to get shopping etc as he does not write in English and son in law cannot read his father's native language so they have had to go shopping - a worry for them all.
I do send him some soup and other things I have cooked so hope this helps.
In Column 8 in The Sydney Morning Herald a chap wrote about an ad currently showing on the telly which advises citizens to "check on the elderly and only buy what you need". He wrote 'Sorry - I appreciate the thought but I, for one, am not for sale."
Keep well Rufus, from your (still?) buddy
