Hospital visiting
Tricia - my very favourite octogenarian - drove me up to Buckinghamshire to visit Ms Fitty, pent in durance vile and now also wired to the wall with a million wires and a videocam. (This is to see what her brain is doing now.) She'd been in videotelemetry for three solid days when we arrived.
There is a limited amount you can do in such circumstances. Ms F was bored.
Tricia is very fond of ballet, so I asked her to choose and bring up a dvd that would brighten Ms F's day and give her a compete change from the endless stream of Hollywood pap and reality tv which is main entertainment for the bedbound.
She chose a stunner: La Fille mal Gardee with glorious Carlos Acosta.
Here are Tricia and Ms F - both riveted.
"He's got an excellent leg extension," says Tricia.
"He's hot," says Ms Fitty.
I think they both mean the same thing..
