Today at work, one of the old ladies was off her medication, and therefore crazy. Thing is, when one of them starts playing up, and few of the more 'on the edge' residents take this as a signel for them to go crazy too.

No-body has told me this.

About 5, I'm taking a cup of tea to someones room. On the way, Elsie (the one off her medication) stops me outside her room. This happens a lot. She's crazy, you see.

Elsie: Can I have a cup of tea?
Me: You just had a cup of tea Elsie.
Elsie: Ay? I want my...my...my *gestures at the bed in the room behind her*
Me: You can't go to bed Elsie - its supper in an hour.
Elsie: Ay? You're a good lad. Do I live here?
Me: Yes Elsie, you live here.
Elsie: dO I have to pay?
Me: No Elsie, it's free.
Elsie: Where am I?
Me: You live here
Elsie: Ay?
Me: You live here?
elsie: I what? Can I stay here long? I can't stay long, my mum will...(mumbles)
Me: Elsie, go to your room
Elsie: Ay?
Me: I'll bring you a cup of tea
Elsie: A cup of what?

A fellow crazy appears. Called Madge.

Madge: Hello. *smiles scarily* Can I have a cup of tea?
Elsie: Not this one. I asked him for a cup of...a cup of...*mumbles*
Madge: Pardon?
Elsie: Ay?
Me: Elsie, go back in your room.
Madge: But I don't want to go to my room. I want a cup of tea.
Me: You've just had tea.
Madge: No I havn't.
Elise: Thats what I said! He's a crook! Act your age.
Me: Eh?
Madge (to Elsie): Who are you?
Elsie: I...do you live here?
Madge: I don't know.
Elsie: Who are you?
Me: You two - stay right there.


Your hero runs to the kitchin for backup, mainly because he can't keep a straight face. Jack (work with him) comes to help. When I get back to the corridor, Monica has appeared, and is conversing with the other two.

Monica: I live here, Elsie.
Elsie: Eh? do we have to pay?
Madge: oooh, I don't know. *smiles scarily again*. (to me) Do you know?
Me: No Madge you don't have to pay.
Madge: What?
Me: You don't have to pay, Madge.
Elsie: Eh?
Monica: Can I have a cup of tea?
Me: YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY

A slight pause.

Elise: Ay?
Madge: Do you live here? Who's son are you?
Monica: He's my son. Where do I pay?
Me: You don't have to pay.
Monica: What? How much is it?
Me: You're wearing a toupe.
Monica: What?
Me: I said you don't have to pay.

Me and Jack are in hysterics. We try to hide by turning around and stifling our laughter. We can't, and so we retreat to the kitchin, hoping they'll sort it out themself.

This is all the more scary because it actually happened.

Half an hour later, we get a knock at the kitchin door. It's Elsie, friends in tow.

Elsie: We...we can't find our rooms.
Madge: (helpfully) We can't find out rooms.
Jack: Shall I take you to your room?
Elsie: Ay? Who are you?
Jack: I'm Jack. I work here.
Elsie: Who's son are you. (sees me standing behind Jack) It's the crook!
Monica: (To Elsie) Who are you? Do you live here?
Madge: Can I have a cup of tea?

We (eventually) decide that I'll take Elsie to her room, and Jack will take Madge to hers. Naturally, Madge tries to follow me, while Elsie attempts to go with Jack.

Anyway, we get them to thier rooms (ignoring any requests for tea, and any accusations of crookery). We win, in the end. No idea what happened to Monica.

So that, my friends, is what I did today. Elsie also complained that her jelly was mouldy....becuase it was a lime jelly.
