Tock, tock, tock

 Another quiet day in semi-isolation. The Gorse Fox performed his statutory escort duties for the school run and then returned home for breakfast.

Soon after breakfast, Kim phoned. Diane spoke to her and commented on how well and chirpy she seemed. (She has just finished a run of night duties). We have a slight concern over a health anomaly that Jon exhibited recently - and he really should have gone to the hospital or at least the GP. He declined.

Ellie has been suffering from eczema and Zoe had managed to get an appointment to see the doctor. Zoe went back to collect her from school to attend the appointment. The doctor appeared to be very thorough and Ellie now has a selection of unguents, ointments, and tablets to help with the problem. She was dropped back into school for the rest of the day.

Diane has been cutting out a large and complex pattern during the day. I have been editing the 2017 blog extract.
