Bravery under fire - a modern twist 11:20 - Mar 30 with 1998 viewsbasilrobbiereborn

La Reborn is currently upstairs working from home. She is due a brew, which is my job.

However, she is currently listening to Led Zeppelin, and the volume suggests that she is struggling with a thorny problem.

I'm scared to go in. I'm also scared of the consequences if I don't. Is there a special category of support from the Government that I might qualify for?

Icon? It's all Rio Ferdinand's fault.

Fine music choice

You should be giving this heroic woman service à l'Anglais. (Yes I had to google the term, sounds better than silver service )

‘Where there is harmony, may we bring discord. Where there is truth, may we bring error. Where there is faith, may we bring doubt. And where there is hope, may we bring despair’

Don`t suppose it was `Tea for One` that was playing?*

*Possibly Zep`s dullest every track - a turgid reworking of the epic, `Since I`ve been Loving You`....

I'm not a LZ fan spud, so I wouldn't know.

She's moved on to Deep Purple now. That suggests the worst is over. She could well be off budgets and on to commissioning research. #PrayForRobbie....

You should be OK unless she suddenly starts on a Leonard Cohen album.

Then you've got to go in. Above and beyond the call of duty.

My partner is currently sewing some medical face masks from old sheets and based on a pattern provided by the hospital at Grenoble.

I think if you hear Leonard Cohen`s dulcet tones wafting from the room the damage has been done, spell.

Nick Drake is probably the last chance saloon for salvation, and even then it is probably touch and go...

She LOVES Leonard Cohen.

I managed to lure her out for a few minutes, but that is mainly because her diary has been re-arranged and we have had to re-schedule lunch for three o'clock. Yes, three. People have no idea what I am going through in the name of top-class governance.....

It`s almost like she`s trying to blot out reality by inducing a catatonic state through listening to insanely loud and brain-damagingly repetitive music, and then when she realises it`s futility, resorting to the funeral-tinged nihilism of Leonard Cohen for solace.

Why could that be?

Just saying...

Is anyone saying that the divorce rate will rise as a result of lockdown?

It's a mystery, isn't it?

I've tried to comfort her. I said I thought it would be over by August. She just started sobbing.....

No sign of Robbie today.

It doesn't look like he survived the ordeal.

It could have been worse - the mother-in-law for example.

You can claim 80% of your pride back if things go awry, but can’t collect till June.

Hope the wound licking isn’t too intense 😉

What do you know that we don't?

You make it sound as though he's been indulgining in a bit of self-flagellation. Or is it flatulation?

Probably one is a direct consequence of the other...
