RP: Help! I Need Somebody!
Date: January 17th, 2005
Character(s): Florean Fortescue, Katie Bell
Location: The Fortescue Dairy
Status: Public
Summary: Feeling a little under the weather, Florean wonders how much longer he can run the dairy without really having any staff.
Completion: Complete
It was getting too difficult for him. Harriet was pointing this out continually and, considering that she wasn't really the sort of wife who nagged, Florean tended to take notice when she did. There were plenty of staff at the pub, so that business was pretty much running itself under Harriet and the bar manager's watch.
The dairy was another matter. Harriet didn't want to get involved in it because she was a Muggle and Florean couldn't quite blame her. It was alright having Felicity around at the weekend, too, but she was only thirteen and she did seem to get rather bored. If it weren't for magic, Florean would have run himself into the ground right now, looking after the cows and preparing the products to sell. There were a couple of lads who he was employing to deal with that side of business, but Florean needed someone to help in the shop, at least part-time.
He blew his nose rather snottily.
Especially on days like this. This cold had been bugging him for days, and all Florean wanted to do was curl up on the sofa with a hot water bottle and This Morning on the television. Harriet was no help, telling him that he was making a big fuss over a little tiny cold, but she didn't know how wretched he felt.
