i have the lurgy - I woke with a sore throat and that horrid sensation that you know means you're sick - kind of a nasty metallic taste. I've spent all day in my dressing gown whinging and feeling rubbish.

Helen now has symptoms and Henry's been crying a bit too so we're all coming down. Since I slept all day, ii now can't sleep and we no longer have the sports channels so even the Ashes series is beyond me. Piss.

To cap it all it's really windy and not only can i not go windsurfing for my illness may overcome me, but i also keep hearing odd noises like the bogey man trying to get in - which of course is just the wind....... i hope
