Smelly duvet

Not a particularly eventful day. I was supposed to be at the gym this evening but I have the start of a cold and a headache so decided to stay home just incase it develops into a fever. I am sure it is nothing more than a cold but would be full of guilt if it did develop and I had gone to the gym knowing I was slightly under the weather. So now I am sitting on the sofa next to Pickle on his smelly duvet cover. It desperately needs a wash but he is so attached to it that I keep putting it off to avoid upsetting him. I really do need to wash it this weekend though.
