Park Outing Amongst a Group of Flu-Ridden
People We dragged our
ill selves to the park muttering something about filling our
lungs with fresh air for a couple of hours. I would have been just as happy
filling my lungs with air from Billingsgate fish market, so long as I was
sitting down and no physical effort was involved. There was much
sneezing and sniffing from Mark, Kate and Jack, and in my case,
much coughing, all to feed the birds – I hope they appreciate it.
Bear was the only
“well” and smiling member of the group
The birds were keen
enough and Jack did his best
We ran out of food and watched a bit
of preening. Interesting to see one of the cygnets sporting some pink feathers – must be one of the escaped flamingos from
Florida
“Is it a bird, is
it a plane” No it’s an attack of the
Frisbees
Grandpa
enthusiastically went on the train with Jack, who managed a smile. The
rest of us found ourselves quietly tree-leaning
Time to leave the
birds to their courting and go for supper
I was always told to feed a cold and
starve a fever – at least Jack perked up and Grandpa
had fun
ALL IN ALL PLEASED TO GET
BACK
