rob237 89 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Bad luck Mick.... Shame you aren't old enough for the annual jab Which reminds of a funny, rather sick - but true, tale: Whilst queueing alongside a well known Bingham 'character', and surrounded by dozens of other elderly folk, awaiting the latest jab - he remarked to a passing GP "Did you know Doc, most of the old folks queueing in concentration camps thought they were waiting for flu jabs!" Half the patients laughed and the other half looked alarmed... Cheers Robt P Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Frank 13 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Is it MAN Flu or the normal type? Everytime I get a heavy cold I get loads of stick from the other half - 'us women have gone through CHILDBIRTH you know - we didn't complain half as much' Etc Etc. - and 'nuff said.

mick2me 3,033 Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Normally if I have a cold, I go into work. I havnt had a days sick in 5 years! This one kept me awake all night coughing and unable to breathe? SWMBO has caught it now. If I can make it Friday night, early stint, I will, but I won't be drinking any alcohol. And I am working early shift the next day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
katyjay 5,091 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I saw a remedy for coughing. You put Vicks vapour rub on the soles of your feet, then socks, and it's supposed to stop you coughing through the night. I don't know how it works, but it's supposed to. Try it and let me know!

Jill Sparrow 10,360 Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Victoria was very fond of nookie, or "fun" as she called it, but detested being pregnant! Perhaps she hadn't worked out what was causing it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
