Dammit, I've come down with a horrible cold and not at all impressed. I think that lockdown has been bad for things like colds etc as our natural immunity has dropped as a result of not being in close proximity with others.
At least I don't have Covid (I tested negative), but 3 people from Karate training have tested positive, so seems like I dodged a bullet there, since I trained with all of them in the last week. Guessing my triple jabs are working and theirs aren't!!
Generally feeling very meh so I might not be very responsive on here as also still having to work from home, though I am always watching

Oh god no, I hate Lemsip, it's just awful!! I can just about tolerate the blackcurrant flavour stuff though.
Cold and Flu Max is the way for me today, but I often find that Panadol soluable works best, especially for getting my temp down.

Is that some sort of karate move then?
In theory, yes

Hope you feel better soon. I'm not feeling good either as I've caught covid don't know what version it is but I'm glad it's not the horrible first versions. Just feels like a really bad Flu and embarrassingly it's affected my bladder control which has not been fun at all.
