I normally go down with a cold on Tuesdays (36-48 hours after shaking peoples' hands after Sunday worship. This week it was a day earlier, so I must have modelled a contaminated balloon at the Street Fair.
This week, being Collective Worship week, means in every day (or it would have been if they'd remembered to tip me off about the Inset Day yesterday - thank goodness for Facebook!) so not a huge amount of recovery time. Instead I curled up with a Hot Lemon and the oldest pages on my to do list and rattled through three jobs that have been hanging over me for several months.
So now I feel better, even if I still have a cold. I can't find a copy on YouTube of that advert with the chap with the bright red nose asking for a train ticket from which this post inherits its title - I'm not that bad.
Do you remember the advert for a certain menthol cough sweet with the coldy Eskimo addressing wife and huskies
"So log, darlig...Bush..."?
It gave my younger self unreasonable pleasure.
Hope you feel better soon.
