Yesterday the Harridan phoned. I answered the call andshe told me that she had some bad news for Mr C.
I hand the phone over. One of Mr C's cousins a while ago was diagnosed and treated for prostrate cancer. It seems the cancer has returned with a vengeance he has not got long to live and due to the cocktail of drugs is awake for no more than two hours a day. Having heard all this Mr C said that he would send the family a card. Harridan's immediate response 'oh no you mustn't do that.'
I was just a bit cross.
there is no logic in her comment. If I were in the cousins place I souls appreciate messages of support from friends and family. It is purely a control thing.
So today we have scheduled in a vist to a card shop and a post box.
