Diary of an Edinburgher

By LadyMarchmont

More Pretzel. More coughing.

Nope. Not better. In fact, probably worse. The cough definitely gets worse at night, and I had a sleepless night again. In fact, I was worried about keeping the chap in the bedroom above me awake all night, so I took my duvet and Archie and I went to the kitchen, with no bedroom above. I lasted about an hour, because the boys upstairs had just come in (midnight) and were stomping about in their kitchen and disturbing me! Back to bed for a confused Archie and I, and I finally dozed from about 5am. But during the day, I didn’t cough, though I didn’t feel exactly sprightly. 

I forgot about my ailments during the day, as Pretzel came to stay with us again. What fun the dogs are! I didn’t feel quite up to going up the hill, though it was a gorgeous sunny day, but they had a grand time. Pretzel isn’t much good at posing for the camera - she always just looks away (Extras) or wanders off, Archie always posing on regardless. He did his usual - digging up sods of earth to chew but he'd try to run off to chew it in peace, and Pretzel would chase him. 

I'll ring the doctor tomorrow.
