Coughing is horrible - particularly when it goes on for a while with no apparent underlying cold. the headache could well be cough related too of course - I sometimes find when I've got a cough it also gives me a headache a few days in.

I actually had some decent portions of sleep last night for the first time in a week! So hopefully that means the cough is turning a corner. I can't wait to sleep without being raised up, it's not comfortable, especially as I am normally a front/side sleeper.
Webinar and first day of interviews done so that's the worst of the week over with now thankfully. I have an incredibly rare day without meetings today, so am looking forward to a long day of getting my head down and achieving things! Little jwil is off to the Eden Project today, very envious, so he's got an early start, so I've booked little miss into breakfast club so I don't have to do the school run twice. That means a nice long stretch of quiet for me from about 8am to 5pm.
Better crack on then! Have a good day everyone"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee5 -
