This is brilliant!! And horrifying!! I am not a hypochondriac but I am definitely very picky about germs/bacteria in the kitchen/bathroom - have always come straight in the house after shopping or being out anywhere and washed my hands.

I had OCD for several years when I was young but now am much more "normal" in my respect for germs. No one ever gets sick out of my kitchen!!

So I was pretty horrified by your story!!! Can imagine how you felt in that moment! Oh dear Lord...!!!!

But it's also brilliantly funny...you told the story so well. Thanks for a wonderful read!
