Man-flu. Any quick fixes?

Night nurse used to get me through a half days work . . . plenty of vitamin C - oranges and fruit juice.

Nothing better for me , Day nurse in the day ( same but without sleeping aid ) & Night nurse at night but be wary of exceeding the stated doses if you have to get up early :D man that stuff makes you sleep like the dead :cry:
Oh & a drop of Merlot to aid its ingestion :oops:

I've stopped taking day nurse this year as it surpresses coughs which causes me bronchitis. Can't beat a bit of night nurse though, I take it about 730pm otherwise any later I can't get my butt out of bed in the morning... or maybe that's down to the wine :wink:

You could always man up and grow a pair Chris :poke: how quick a fix this becomes depends on how quick you can grow said pair.... you're welcome :thumbsup:

Well !!
All I can say is, you can't have had man flu before Paul, if you had, you wouldn't mock a fellow bloke :poke:

Shame on you, that's the kind of remark I would expect from a woman :P :rofl:
 
HAHAHA, you lot! :lol:
Just back from a mammoth hike into the fields round by me and back with a nice warm cup of honey and lemon and sifting through all the bits of advice, sarcasm, brutality and downright pisstakes! hahaha awesome! :lol:

Thanks to all who have offered advice. And a big steaming bag of catshit to all who'v been thoroughly cheeky! lol
and PastryfacePaul, can always depend on you for some brutal honesty! :roll:
@John that sounds like a great idea but sadly there's no bath in me rented Dutch place - just a wetroom shower-type thingymahjig. Got a jacuzzi at me place in UK and wish I was there now, soaking in a nice warm radox bath while watching a bit of telly and scoffing an egg butty. call me common, i don't care!

Youre right Fred, it is us against them and although man flu for Chris starts as low as a paper cut, I should stand shoulder to shoulder with my brother.... once his nose stops dripping of course! :cry:

To be fair Fred, the Bear working means sitting around drinking tea, dreaming about cars and buffalo :roll:

That's not normal tea, its railway tea-mere mortals cant drink it :poke:

Yep, that's a fax machine :P Solely for the use of printing out mobile phone deals until it ran out of ink 10 years ago :lol:
It still has the phone wired through it, that's why I'm sitting here like a coiled spring-it could ring at any moment & kick off :o

My uncle had a cold remedy involving a hat, a bed and a bottle of whisky.
Put the hat at the end of the bed, and get in. Drink the whisky until you can see two hats.
Your cold will then be cured... :D
Cheers, Dave
