A night of hacking cough with a nose that feels like it has been attacked with an angle grinder is not the best start to a day interviewing people for lecturer posts.
So reluctantly I have called in sick citing the bubonic plague as an excuse.
Management has said it's a slight cold and headed for shops, armed with plastic.
Taliesin has accused me of malingering with a strong hint that my wages could have been invested in petrol for his motor bike.
Said item having become more contentious when I went to mow the lawn last week and found there wasn't a drop of petrol anywhere.
The man himself took on the job over the weekend but it seems to me that the mower has developed an inordinate thirst for petrol, either that or it's all going in his bike.
Not that I would suggest such a thing of course...

I seem to remember my Dad having a similar problem with the lawn mowers petrol consumption once my brothers started riding motorbikes,what a coincidence!
