Re: Pandemic Flu - This one could be for real......
Well in the space of a few hours i have managed to get a sore throat and runny nose but i think it is just the common cold so still not panicking right now nuking it with a triple lemsip and a generous dash of whiskey always does the trick and if i have enough of them i sleep through most of the illness  . Next door neighbour has already booked a doctors appointment because she coughed and it didn't sound normal to her  though there are many reasons why swine flu might feel at home with her.
