    Think of it as a good excuse for a warm brandy.

    The last time I had the flu I was completely delirious with a high temperature and running back and forth from bed to the bathroom, drinking booze would have been one of the last things I'd have wanted at that time.

    I'm catching it next week, so I can lay on the sofa watching all the shitty films, whilst her indoors waits on me.

    My employer offers me a free flu jab every year so I just get the occasional cold.

    You inject chemicals into your body so you don't get a cold, seriously ?

    Running? the only one time I had a flu type virus was a few years ago, I could not stand up long enough to even wait for the kettle to boil

    I remember a particular nasty bout quite a few years ago, my girlfriend brought round a bottle of brandy and we ended up singing songs - it did't end well though,,,,,, we've been married for 20 years.

    Apparently, there is one way to tell if you've got flu or a "flu-type virus" (ie a cold)

    Imagine you are wrapped up on your sofa suffring from "it", and a twenty pound note blows against your window and sticks there.

    If you're too ill to get up and get it, you've got flu.
