Tolerating Malcolm at the moment is Max, the
cat. While his ‘staff’ (Ann) is back in England Max has allowed Malcolm to
share his territory.
The main
condition for Max’s generosity is that Malcolm should do his duty – primarily
to provide food. (A job Max has noticed is done much better by his normal,
permanent ‘staff’. He is considering whether to allow ‘staff’ to go on leave
again).
Max is not
the only animal at the Hospital. There is also a small herd of cows which
provide milk to the Hospital.
Malcolm
also has his own ‘territory’. He has the largest office in the Hospital – the
only problem is that it is primarily the Board Room which he shares.
This does
mean he has no excuse for being late for meetings.
We have been married since 1973 with 4 grown up children and 7 grand sons and 2 grand daughters. Malcolm retired (early) as Director of Corporate Services (Treasurer) of a District Council. Irene has had a range of careers most recently as manager of a Volunteer Bureau and Business Broker for a community project.
