I found out a cabaret show I was invited to participate in months ago has now not included me on its list of performers, after I took the time and trouble to prepare material for it. I got a vague apology about being ‘forgotten’ after supporting shows by the group concerned for over a year now, and a half-hearted promise to try to amend it – given that slots take up just three minutes it hardly seems that difficult to put right such an error, but I’m left in limbo on the matter for now. - Amendment - They have now fixed this so I am now officially in the show again - hooray!
My mum had a check-up at the hospital on her heart condition and there was mercifully no deterioration in her condition. A neighbour dropped by to bring her some romantic novels to read which was lovely.

Sorry you prepared all that for nothing, I would be mad too. Glad your mom's heart condition is improving and not getting worse. I love reading books, I do it when I have nothing else going on.

There is no excuse for not righting a wrong... regardless of how much trouble it would be!
And I'm happy for your mum!! That was a nice thing for the neighbor to do!!

I hope the novels aren't too racy; how will your mum's heart cope!

I hope the group fix their oversight. It isn't very professional behaviour is it? Good that you Mum's check was satisfactory. Does she read a lot?
