How many times a year do you get the flu...or the sniffles, or a cold...

...I've been lucky so far, but now it's got me...

...when you're sick, are you a whiner, or do you just grin and bear it...??

....and do you go to work and give it to everyone in the office??

doh

Ohhh, pobrecito! Are you whining much?

I haven´t had it yet, but I normally have one bout in February. I didn´t have a flu jab this time so odds on it´ll be winding its way to me.

The worst thing is being alone when you´re feeling lousy, don´t you think? I like being fussed over and kept topped up with lemsips.

You´re lucky then working from home.

I struggle in because i hate letting my students and my employer down, unless I really am confined to bed.

It´s the wrong attitude though.

I've always thought it insane that people go into work when they are sick, and spread it around to everyone in the office...

I usually get a bad dose in October or November every year. Tried the flu jab a few years ago and was sick for 12 weeks so never again.

most people when they get a heavy cold think they have flu if you get the flu you will not want to get out of bed and probaly cant you shake bones ache have a fever if you have a very bad attack you can also get water in your lungs and be in hospital for a couple of weeks so if you can walk around you got a cold not flu no cure for a cold im afraid just stay warm drink lots of fluids and if you are over 40 years old you should have a flu jab each year ..flu can kill

I don't know if I have ever had the flu, and I have only had one bad cold that I remember, in 1979. I get sniffles from cold-type viruses once about every 10 years.

If I get sick I hibernate alone. Wouldn't dream of giving it to anyone else. hug
