I feel I have developed this.. Chest full of grot,heavy cold and aching limbs.. Been confined to the bed,bath,house for the last 3 days..aargh
Don't know I've not had a baby.. watched Mrs b have one.. Later she had another...(so it can't be too bad.....) She's not had the plague though..
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.......
been ill for the last 2 weeks.over the worst now just coughing. was vomiting for over a week. been on omeprazole gastro-resistant capsules. for last 5days.feeling ok now. back to work tomorrow.
Samual Pepys said in his diary that eating stale bread seemed to ward off the plague. I think @bernjb56 can still prescribe stale bread.
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.
I think it's time you and I got new partners, my wife has been ill for weeks, you should see how much washing up there is
