Man Flu!

**Bob Bacon** · 22-12-2011, 16:13

Would you believe it. Started my Christmas holiday today and I've got man flu!

It started yesterday with a sore throat, then a runny nose - now cough etc.

As all the ladies know, this is a serious ailment suffered only by us blokes - I think women usually refer to it as a common cold!

It might be touch and go, but I think I will pull through.

Hi Bob
You have my sympathy, I am almost recovered from the worst bout of flu I think I have ever had .My question is why do they call it man flu?I do hope you are over it by Crimpo.
Regards
Colin

hi all from sunny malta. wellll not very sunny at the moment,gale force winds for the last 3 days/nights with torrential showers. but still around 10/12 deg.
for the last 3 weeks i have had the maltese version of Man Flu,

probably imported from U.K. by ryanair. and it is not at all pleasant

, on 3rd bottle of cough mixture. but few glasses of red wine helps

. got some scotch (J&B rare) but taste buds are not up to scratch,i smoke but i think rolled up newspaper probably would'nt taste any worse.hopefully will be better soon.

merry xmas to u all
