again, the waiting

I wasn't watching the development of the small one's regular half-weekly test, but it turned positive whilst he was up brushing his teeth in preparation for heading to school. The rest of us were negative, so the big one (still within a month of his own reinfection) went to school whilst the rest of us went to the test centre. Just before midnight we got the results which not only confirmed him but also contradicted Nicky's LFT taken only an hour before the PCR, albeit using a snout-only Orient Gene green-box device. As she'll need a telly and a place to work she's now in the front room whilst Amos remains in our room, to which he was whisked as soon as his LFT turned.
