Would you believe it!

Oh woe is me, woe is me.  Would you believe I'm ill! I'm bloody well ill!

Sore throat, blocked nose, headache and stiff neck.  When I got home at lunchtime I made myself a cup of tea, cut a slice of Christmas cake (it must be eaten) and fixed a hot water bottle.  Then I went to bed.  I didn't drink the tea.  I didn't eat the cake, I did sleep for an hour.

I felt so much better after, in fact I felt so much better that I walked back into work this afternoon (and home again).  It's just taken me three quarters of an hour to eat a bowl of pasta (due to the sore throat) and I'm almost ready for bed again.

See you on the other side!
