anybody else had the flu for the last three weeks? I have had a slight sniffle for the past three weeks, does that count? Just a little 'bunged up', a lot of sneezing, nothing else. |

Or not being able to collect a free £50 note that is on the kitchen table and all you have to do is go down and pick it up. The vast majority of people who say they have had flu but are back to normal in around a week have just had a common cold. There does seem to be some low level upper respitory tract infection about.

I'll vouch for the severity of real flu. I was in bed with it when my young stepdaughter told me that a pikey was stealing a large radiator that I removed for a re-plastering job and left propped against the side wall of our house (not in full view). All I could do was tell her: get his reg number.
I'd normally be well up for some argy-bargy with a scoundrel like that. I just could not rise from bed. Bill. |
