My Mum has just been rushed in tonight. ...

It certainly does bring it close to home! My son, daughter in law and granddaughter have had the virus. Been tested and quarantined. Now feeling heaps better but still tiring easily.

Nicely written. Sums it all up very well! -
Hasn’t it always been this way, just possibly not so intensely magnified? In my last September I struggled to find sessions for a little boy to fit round his Mum, then a week before the term started she contacted me to ask if he could have the same sessions as his cousin, and her sister would bring him. Okay, with some shuffling and asking another parent to swap (who was luckily very flexible) I managed that, only to be told the day before the term started that she hadn’t actually asked her sister and it wasn’t convenient! Could she go back to the other sessions? Er, no. I’ve filled them now. I wasn’t about to ask helpful Mum to swap again! She continued swapping and changing his sessions for the first few weeks before pulling him entirely, claiming he wasn’t settling! She asked for a place for him in the summer term ‘so he could play with some friends before they start school’ 😡

That reminds me of our C stall a few years ago. We had cut out all the bits to make C cards But just ran out of time to actually make them, so we stuffed the cards and their accompanying bits into clear plastic card covers and they sold like hot cakes! Lesson for the following year!

I said in one of the threads that my 9000th post would be to start a thread on things we have made ourselves that we are proud of. So it could be when you were doing a demo for a child to see what you meant (and thought, crikey, that's good!), or a cake you baked or something you knitted. Some sort of handicraft, anyway. So come on, let's have a bit of show and tell!
