Why can't they be locked up in their parents houses by law, until the God forsaken ailment has gone!

My sister's youngest has given me the most horrendous cold over the last five days. It's the worst I can remember having. I've nearly gone through a box of tissues in the last day and a half (nose blowing only, for those with evil minds). I've only now got the strength to log on and type.:thumbsup:

Can we do the same with colleagues who come to work to spread their diseases, we have one in our office and despite our protestations for her to go home, she still won't... next time I'm gonna pick her up and chuck her out.

My boss is like that, drags himself to work full of a cold etc spreading germs everywhere.

Latist one is the the maximus trike has a buggered diff, all our legs hurt from using it, including the guy who has been riding on the thing for 5 years. So what do we do? Use it and not get anyone to fix it.

Anyway only a few weeks left in this job. Not my problem anymore.

Best use a stick and save getting too close.

I got my first cold for a while over Christmas from my 8 month old niece, I was much more poorly than she was.

Dont bother with tissues. They are just a waste, and kill trees.
Just sit near a window, and when you get a nose full of snot, open up the window and shoot it straight out.
Much easier, and cheaper.

I'll disgust everyone her NOW: i blow my nose into my hand in the washroom then wash the hand !

Saves adjusting the tissue and faffing around the whole thing - this is if your in the vacinity of a bathroom !

Kids can have some nasty bastard of germs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I recall a radio advert telling adults to teach children to blow their nose exactly. Hope it got thru. to some, somehow.
 
I had two weeks off on holiday. Over the course of the two weeks every member of my family came down with a sickness bug (one at a time) brought from nursery by my youngest son (21 months). This included my in-laws whom we went to visit during the break (the sickness started after we arrived) and my wifes cousins, who decided to visit us whilst we were at my in-laws.

If anyone in Shropshire has come down with a sickness bug recently, I think we may be the original source! :angry:

It was a fun holiday!

I presume that means you didn't get out on the bike then?
During the holiday, no. I've done a fair amount of commuting on it, though and I am enjoying it. I've also got a longer ride this weekend with some other CC'ers. I think this ride will highlight my need for a slightly less harsh cassette!
