  5. Don't know I've not had a baby..

    watched Mrs b have one..:eek:

    Later she had another...(so it can't be too bad.....)

    She's not had the plague though..:oops:
     
  6. Is there someone in the street shouting "Bring out your dead" - if not then it's only man flu

  7. Practically everyone I know has been knocked sideways by heavy duty bugs lately. My kids have been coughing for ages. I too now have some sort of virus. Even my teeth hurt. Roll on summer.. Hope you get better quick.......

    Samual Pepys said in his diary that eating stale bread seemed to ward off the plague. :thumbsup:

    I think @bernjb56 can still prescribe stale bread. :hattip:

    Is it a Northampton bug? I drove through the county last month and although I've bravely recovered sarah is currently sat under a blanket in a poorly manner.

    It's a nationwide bug Alex. My next door neighbour has been really poorly with it and so has his wife. Loads of people at work and others I know. It leaves a nasty cough.

    Although I prefer your Northampton theory better. Northampton, the home of all ills. ;)
