Poor thing. Chicken pox at our childrens school too, lots. Luckily ours have already had it.

Sorry about Martha. :( You are so right about books. So many to read, so little time.

@delwynforsythe
i always try take loads on holiday. i do make time then. Martha i think will have more spots tomorrow. bless her.. calamine lotion at the ready

[Delwyn Forsythe]

@brennieb When my kids had chicken pox I used a bath them in Piinedasol. I would assume you would be able to get it in the UK. Was more effective than Calamine lotion, but a bit smelly.

I love having a nosey through people's books. Read a few on here, my favourite being Trainspotting. Looking forward to T2. Hope Martha isn't too uncomfortable.

Oh dear. Speedy recovery to Martha. Love books, but for fiction, use a Kindle now.

I love that quote. We have a lot of the same books AND we have that chimp. He sits in our kitchen!
Hope Martha's feeling better by now.
