"...and in other news, seems like the flu season is a determined little bugger this year---get it, bug, bugger, I know, I'm hilarious---St. Mungo's is reporting a flood of patients with cases of high fever and other flu-like symptoms. If you feel like you're coming down with something, you probably are. Make sure to drink lots of fluids and circle your bed with stones."
"Stones?"
"You've never heard that? My mother used to do that when my sisters got sick, said that if I crossed over the stone circles then I'd catch the cold."
"Maybe she just wanted to keep you from annoying your sister?"
"Me? Annoying? Never. Shut up. And that's all for the news, brought to you by Arkie Alderton's Kwik-Repair Shop, if we can't fix it, it's probably not a good idea to get back on the broom!"
