Not feeling good. Sympathy required please.

[Ed]

I've been battling a heavy cold/flu for the last week, but being self-employed I've had to go to work. I really wanted to go down south to Portsmouth today to meet Mike Perham (round the world yachtsman - back today) but when I woke up at 4am I really didn't feel like it, I'm really disappointed. By lunchtime I felt a bit brighter and hopped out on the bike, only 5 miles later to be feeling light-headed, dizzy and sick, thought 'self, this is bloody stupid' and came home. Typing this in bed I feel like I've gone a few rounds with a boxer. I'm going to have to give in, I think:(

I hate feeling ill:(

[Shellywoozle]

Ah it sucks dont it mate? I feel for ya :grouphug: Lemsip max strengh is my default choice for feeling crap, even if i'm not sure its cold or flu related. Just has all the right drugs to help and the lemony goodness always makes me feel a bit better too.

Sorry to hear that Ed, sounds like you've been over doing it.

[kwak zzr]

stay in bed mate you'll soon shake it off.

[Wideboy]

lots of whisky will help :thumleft:

[Jayneflakes]

Healing hugs Ed, get what rest you can an don't push too hard, that can spread the infection around to bits that are not so hard wearing.

Get well soon, you are after all one of the characters that makes this place so happy, so we hate to see you feeling sad.

Hugs and smiles,
Jayne and Carol

excellent remedy for this is to have the following;;
beechams powder, double whiskey, generous spoon of honey, lemon juice, topped up with hot water, not reccommended to go riding after :D. then go to bed to sleep off, repeat as needed. Guaranteed to feel better and sleep soundly. :smt015:smt015:smurf::smurf::smurf:
WARNING!
do NOT :makelurve: as you will pass your germs on and wake up with a worse headache than before and won't remember why you've got it!!!!

GWS Ed!! :grouphug:

BTW have you tried Night Nurse? It's great to knock you out so that you can get some sleep. No idea what's in it but it works a treat!

Sympathies to all the sick and downtrodden x

I agree night nurse is amazing stuff. You can only take it when you are really ill as it tastes awful. They now do capsules. Get well ill people

[Jabba]

I've had the the lurgy for the last week and a bit but kept going...... alcohol and Night Nurse is the remedy :thumbsup:
