Pain In The Proverbial.

Goldfinch60



There I was on the lawn

Hitting the croquet balls,

Going through the hoops,

Playing quite well.

I had a bit of a cough

But thought nothing of it,

When suddenly I felt weak

And started aching.

So I stopped playing

And my love and I went home.

We checked ourselves,

And there it was,

We both tested positive,

Positive for this flaming Covid.

So no more croquet for a while,

In fact no more anything for a while,

Until I am free from this bug.

It is a right pain in the proverbial!!

    Sorry to hear - yes it's rife at the moment. Jeanne had her fourth jab yesterday and we are taking the greatest care but I guess it's just a matter of time.

    • Goldfinch60

      It seems to be that way Michael, we have no idea where we caught it from.

          What goes around comes around. Hope you don't suffer too much and are clear soon... put your feets up - yes all four of them.
