Good Grief

[sherrardk]

Since 10 March this house has been plagued with chicken pox (three of the children and myself), glue ear, horrible colds/flu, sickness bug, unidentified causes of high temperatures, etc but the worst has now happened - himself has a cold and is wandering around in his pj's and dressing gown like he's on his last legs. Don't think I have got the patience to put up with it, anyone want to babysit him for a bit (please)?

Bloody 'ell!

Man flu!!!!

Don't delay, call the air ambulance out at once, Sherrardk!!!!!

[gness]

Put him in a taxi, Sherr..send him over here and have a jolly good rest. Leave him a week and he'll be so glad to get back to you. x

I feel for you sher, man flu is a Killer (for the wife)

[DaisyNonna]

Sorry Sherr, couldn't cope with such a serious crisis.

[sherrardk]

It's quite pathetic really (not saying he doesn't feel poorly, but get a grip). Boy #1 has had a stinking cold/flu and apologised today because he felt guilty for bringing it into the house (he's a lovely boy).

[DJHawkes]

how ever is he going to get to work, do the shopping, cooking, cleaning, take the kids to school and perform in bed? Oh hang on, he's got man flu sorry, I thought you said a cold.....

[sherrardk]

I've told him to take some paracetamol, I'm not in the mood to pander to him (have had one child being sick all day and had three of them in bed with me last night).

[askyourgran]

Don't know how you cope sherr, it seems ages since all this started. Send himself to gness as she said. He'll be feeling himself in no time at all.

[sherrardk]

I'd gladly ship him off to Gness, give me a poorly child (or five) anyday overly a poorly man. (The kids have been so unfortunate with being poorly but there seems to be all sorts going around, I don't suppose being stuck in the house because of the bad weather helps.)

Perhaps hinting at some decorating needs doing always worked for me, nothing like getting rid of man flu than mentioning a trip to B&Q. (Other DIY stores are available).

I would just mention Sherrardk he did divorce me though. Lol lol
