It's probably your fault she had it in the first place, am I right?

Glad I'm not the only one who has a Mrs like this!
OMG, when she is ill the whole world must look after her - she doesn't stop moaning about it.
When I'm ill, I go to work and get on with it.
Tsk - women.

That's why I don't understand where this Man Flu thing comes from.
In my experience when men have a cold they just carry on as normal, my missus doesn't even know I have a cold half the time, when she has one everyone knows about it and she is over emotional to go with the coughing, sneezing, and general whining about being ill.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Agreed!

Yeah - and the annoying thing is that I know it is the same bug - because she passed it to me (in an act breaching the Geneva Convention on use of Biological Weapons)
So at a guess, I'm feeling much as she did, just I'm not curled up on the sofa boosting Kleenex profits.
And I have to say, little comments like "do your teeth hurt yet?" do help much either.

This is why at the first sign of a sniffle I kick her out to sleep in the shed.
As if, she's been down unwell pretty constantly the whole of February. I have a good constitution and have remained Strong Like Ox / Drunk Like Lord.

I think alcohol helps: it kills the bugs, and if you consume enough it keeps people (who might have nasty diseases) at a good distance as well.

Hope the cat is okay. Our cats have had a bug with stuffy nose and sneezing. Lost one, almost lost another.

I was wondering what comments I would get for using the work "Lost".

I am heartless, I know. Sorry for the cat(s), though.

Now the Ukrainian Navy has switched allegiances to the Russians.
Honestly, I have not seen so many defective Ukrainians since Chernobyl.

Defect or be sunk, that is the question. 
I read Yulia Tymoshenko "made" her millions from Ukraine's energy markets and she probably condemns Viktor Yanukovych for his excess of wealth. Ukraine is a mess. Me, I'm going to buy shares in its nuclear industry as that at least is stable, well run, clean, and gives you a warm glow at night.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

The conflict isn't over yet... 
But if it's true what Dave writes, it seems like the Ukranian Navy has already gone French on us...
Note: Actually, to be honest, I don't think it's a laughing matter. Let's REALLY REALLY hope it isn't the start of a new World War!

The French Navy refused to defect, to Britain. That was a massive mistake.
Why wait till the krauts were at the gates of Toulon and then sink your boats, or park them up in Africa? Why didn't they, and the entire French airforce immediately just go to the Britain and fight from there?
I don't get it. Surely you wanted a free France? Surely you knew Britain was on your side? Or were there fascist sympathisers in the navy?
