Back from Docs. Got antibiotics. Said to the doc bet you are sick of the sight of me. He said that I should never think that. There is always a reason a person goes to see their GP, and not to feel guilty about it. He never judges a person for the amount of times they go to see him.
Awww I have such a nice doc.:A

My wife has been about 5 times in the past 3 weeks, 4 lots of blood, 4 presciptions, still ill and off work, I'm saying nothing.

My sister had a chest infection, in August, after 3rd visit, sorry it's Pneumonia. She's still off, I'm saying nothing again.

A good morn to all ,

Happy Birthday to Wirehair , have a wondeful time on your special day with many more to follow .:bdaycake:

With all this talk of illness, thought I would share a post off Facebook from a (male!) friend of mine


Man Flu - The Facts...

1. Man-Flu is more painful than childbirth. This is an irrefutable scientific fact*.
*(Based on a survey of over 100,000 men.)

2. Man-Flu is not 'just a cold'. It is a condition so severe that the germs from a single Man-Flu sneeze could wipe out entire tribes of people living in the rainforest. And probably loads of monkeys too.

3. Women do not co...
ntract Man-Flu. At worst they suffer from what is medically recognised as a 'Mild Girly Sniffle' – which, if a man caught, he would still be able to run, throw a ball, tear the phone book in half and compete in all other kinds of manly activities.

4. Men do not 'moan' when they have Man-Flu. They emit involuntary groans of agony that are entirely in proportion to the unbearable pain they are in.

5. Full recovery from Man-Flu will take place much quicker if their simple requests for care, sympathy and regular cups of tea are et. Is that really so much to ask? Florence Nightingale would have done it

6. More men die each year from MFN (Man-Flu Neglect) than lots and lots of other things. (Like rabbit attacks or choking on toast).

7. Men suffering from Man-Flu want nothing more than to get out of bed and come to work, but they are too selfless to risk spreading this awful condition amongst their friends and colleagues. In this sense, they are the greatest heroes this country has ever known.

8. In 1982 scientists managed to simulate the agonising symptoms of full blown Man-Flu in a female chimp. She became so ill that her head literally fell off.

9. Man-Flu germs are more powerful than He-Man, The Thundercats and The A-Team combined. They are too strong for weak, nasty tasting 'lady medicines' like Lemsip, so don't bother trying to force them on a victim of Man-Flu.

10. While it may seem like a Man-Flu sufferer is just lying around enjoying 'Diagnosis Murder' it is a commonly recognised medical fact that the exact pitch and frequency of D*ck Van Dyke's voice has remarkable soothing powers.

Every minute in this country one man is struck down by Man-Flu.

Women, all we ask is that each of you offers them a cup of tea, some kind words and your undivided attention and care. Then maybe, just maybe, we'll beat this monstrous disease together...

I paid £6 for 4 different flavours of 250ml Lynx in Sada (on 2 for £3) but APG sees cost in A as full price of £2.37 each. Compared against M's 97p (less 10%) and I got an APG for £5.99 back!!

4x250mls for 1p!!!! :j:j

1 x Lynx Shower Gel - Africa (250ml) £2.37 £0.97
1 x Lynx Shower Gel - Excite (250ml) £2.37 £0.97
1 x Lynx Shower Gel - 2012 Final Edition (250ml) £2.37 £0.97
1 x Lynx Shower Gel - Dark Temptation (250ml) £2.37 £0.97

Do not buy more than one of the same flavour or it will compare at the correct 2 for £3 as seen on fuzzgun19s original post

The following are confirmed as comparing against Mr M's 97p

Dark Temptation
2012 Final Edition
Africe
Twist
Excite

There is a 6th on the 2 for £3 called Attract. Anyone care to test it? My A's didn't have any.

Please give thanks to fuzzgun19 and Call of Trouty. Without their posts I wouldn't have thought to do this test shop :beer:

Thanks for trying this AUU:T:T

Happy Birthday Wirehair, hope you have a lovely day:bdaycake:

Oh no, I was just about to go to my Mr A - How cheeky, they will spoil our fun

Will have to go on the hunt for 4p socks and 2p haribo at T's instead, it is much closer to me

Oh Asda don't you see if you let us have our fun we will be bothered to travel all the way to your shop, and spend our pennies with you but if you spoil our fun and stop the glitches then we will just go to the cheaper shops like bodycare or pound shops where we can get these things cheap anyway and spend our pennies there instead.
We are your captive audience and if we are there getting our fun then we will also buy our other stuff from you too....don't you get it???:mad:
