A quiet week.

Constipation, which I have avoided writing about for six weeks out of pure squeamishness. It is the thing making me most miserable and I have said nothing about it to anybody. That seems worth noticing.

A fortnight of feeling wrong that turned out to be dehydration.

A rough few days. Not dangerous, just relentlessly unpleasant, the kind of unwell where you cannot read and cannot sleep and cannot settle to anything.

Headache for three days running. It turned out I had barely drunk anything since Tuesday. Water, then a slow improvement, then feeling faintly stupid.

Cheers.

Thank you for saying the hard part out loud. It makes it easier for the rest of us to.

Here if you want a voice on the phone on Thursday. No advice, just company.
