Don't panic! Don't panic!

I'm picking up our new car today. Well, it's new for us being just 3 years old. Our other car had become less than reliable and it was making me nervous; the thought of breaking down in the middle of the rush hour puts me into a bit of a panic.

And talking of panic, all this talk of a swine flu pandemic is a little OTT isn't it? Or is it? Should we be worried? Should we be confined to barracks and stocking up on tinned goods? I'll be OK there though as my mum is always in readiness for the next disaster, be it a water shortage (she has lots of bottled), dirty bomb (duct tape for the windows) or a shortage of gas (camping gas canisters). Her house is the destination on the zombie plan.

Still, the Bank Holiday approaches and I have a lovely long weekend away from work. Don't worry, Be Happy!
