Why are people giving you likes for saying you don’t want me to be Mr Funny! **** window lickers. Anyway, I know nobody will care, but I’ve got that very initial signs of a cold thing going on. Slightest of sniffs and a sensation behind the eyes. Still at the stage where mind over matter can kick in and you can refuse to get a cold. I suspect what’s happened, my body has sussed I’ve taken 2 days leave Followed by a weekend, and decided it can also have some down time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
