Well I am not a happy bunny!
Wolvie has given me flu!
He is always ill with a cold if he is not snoring, watching footie he is dying of flu!
I have just cooked a roast which was awful

and he has coughed and spluttered all the way thru the news!
I made my excuses and left him to his woe is me routine!!
and his snoring is worse with a cold....Kaye will vouch for me there
how does she know I hear you ask.....
So my question is....zzzzzzzzzzzz
Is your other half a wuss when they got the flu!

Well NL I thought you would have known how terrible Man Flu is!
It also is nearly as bad as child flu!
Arms and legs dont work, brow needs wiping quite often and groans and moans are quite uncontrollable!
Sniffles and a tickly cough are very explosive so the whole street can hear.
Terrible thing...
all sympathies to you NL for looking after Wolvie!

And for being poorly too hope you soon recover

Wolvie I hope you are soon better,
Jo

Girl germs are much worse than the Man Flu.
Poor Wolvie. He needs sympathy, not scorn at his frail condition.

Did you notice that the scientist was a man? -- would that be significant?

"... the adventurous lifestyle of the male means that they are more exposed to disease but paradoxically this reduces their immunity."

Where's the smilie for 'snigger'?

There are terrible diseases married men get.
Most of us are deaf in one ear. Scientists have shown it is usually the side the missus sleeps on.
If this is opposite to the side she sits when giving you directions in the car you can end up deaf in both ears.
A lot of us have thumb prints on our forehead.
Some of us have been horribly mained or killed after replying to the question "Does my bum look big in this?".
Our memory fails us when we are having a "heated discussion" and "She Who Must Be Obeyed" remembers minute and unimportant details from 30 years ago to support her case.
Permanent brain damage has occured when husbands have been forced to sit through a "Chick Flick" because "SHE" want's your company whilst she sniffles though a box of Kleenex.
Instant and severe depression can occur when we first realise that the wife is becoming a clone of Mother In Law.
Seperation Anxiety Disorder is common when we are forced to give up our sports cars and buy a station wagon or similar "practical" vehicle. When you try and explain the kids wouldn't exist if it wasn't for the lay back seats in your sports car the urgency to get rid of it increases. It is like a form of contraception
We have to suppress billions of years of instinct and not notice nice and well proportioned assets on other women. I tried explaining that just because I am on a diet, it does not mean I can't enjoy the menu. That argument made my real menu consist of baked beans on toast for a few days...
So leave us blokes alone. You cruel and heartless Harpies
