Another Work Day


Today is Tuesday. Spent Monday afternoon and evening struggling with a rather lurid seascape, featuring rather a lot of viridian green, but the sky is unresolved as yet.

Further call from Romy: two feeling ill and returned home by taxi; two more with sick relative returned home by train; one still sick but visited doctor and recovering with medication and another not 100%. I dread to hear what will happen by tomorrow evening and have asked Romy to report back if there are any further misadventures. Dear me, I am seriously wondering whether these 'holidays' are a good idea, given the general age and state of health of the punters. However, most are apparently thoroughly enjoying their stay and the weather has been good. Fingers crossed for the next few days. Thank God they are back on Saturday.

I have been out in the garden early - no, it wasn't a nightmare - the two extra triffids are still there. Oh dear. Another message to say another punter has gone home. And another punter we were sending on holiday had been rushed to hospital. I can't stand it. We are definitely jinxed.
