    Can't be that serious a disease then. Normal flu has me needing to be dynamited out of bed...

    I thought that too. I nearly wet the bed several times when I had flu because I couldn't get out of bed to get to the loo.

    But apparently, you take the drugs in the very early stages - when you feel mainly okay but are highly contagious :rolleyes:

    Of course if she'd said that with them present they would have nodded in total agreement and then the instant she turned her back they would have made curling gestures with their fingers against their temples.

    My grandmother started work at 14. My parents both started work at 15. Real work - not YTS.

    Just to put things in perspective.
