From David Singleton's latest diary entry:
A strange new world we live in, when being diagnosed with a bad dose of flu brings a huge sigh of relief. I still feel a bit battered and bruised, but it makes everything brighter. Most of all the fact, that we are not waiting for everyone else in the house to start showing symptoms.
When the husband gets ill, everything continues while he lies in bed. When the wife gets ill, everything falls apart.
