Take-over

Nige has been off since last Friday with some virus which had upset his stomach for a few days. Although he doesn’t think it was the Norovirus, because he wasn’t vomiting. He sits close to the door anyway, but everyone was making sure that his route to the lavatory was clear, just in case. They are all worried about catching it off him as well.
Yesterday his mate phoned him after dinner to tell him that our company had taken over the place he works, and that they would now be working for the same people. I asked if he was going to join the pension scheme.
