CCC081: The Doctor’s House

The doctor’s house wasn’t on a bus route. I had to pick my way through a waterlogged meadow, deeply pitted by the cattle, then through a wood alive with every kind of biting thing. But eventually there was the road, and the doctor’s house.

I’d asked during the online interview whether he was a medical doctor or a professor with a doctorate. It was only after the connection dropped that I realised he hadn’t answered. Yet the questions he’d asked me tested my knowledge of anatomy, so I guessed him something in the medical line.

But then, why would he want someone proficient with needle and thread?

    For a stitch in time, perhaps, but you must be having some naughty idea, dear Crispina.
