Who's Having A Worse Christmas Than Me?

[ladybirder]

I'm poorly:-((

[MissTerious2]

Glad your feeling better Naomi

[naomi24]

Thanks, lottie.

[ladybirder]

missT I know Wimbledon well, I used to walk my dog on the common there. Nice area. My father used to live on the NY Moors. Lovely. I hope you manage to get up there at some point.

Snap Naomi. Same here. I am so glad of AB and my laptop but I've bought two jigsaw puzzles just in case.
Glad you're feeling better. I'm tied, must go to bed in a mo.

That's a big decision 237. I nearly did that once but I'm glad I didn't.

The problem with living in the UK is that the climate is just so awful. I really struggle with that. The summers can be OK if we actually get a summer but the winter is muddy, grey and depressing. How do you cope with that?

[jennyjoan]

think I have the answer of them all.

I lay down to sleep about 7 or 8 then get up - watched a little TV - (no food) anyhow I went to my LOCAL GARAGE about 1-23M - just wanted to get absolutly no shopping tomorrow.

I know there are Few garages open and I course went to a terrible area. Know there my own are but my lights were in and out OF CAR - next thing called over BY the police- they are complaining bout the lights and 2.0AM i GOT A BREATHALYSIS TESTER. tHEY MADE ME BREATHE MY TRY 6 TIMES ON THE BREATHLEYSER AND i PASSED.MY WAY - THAT'S HOW MUCH IS lOATHE DIDPISE CHRISTMAS

most people are long-legged from that angle I expect. Perhaps we should do a survey on it.

Wrong thread. Please ignore.

Get well soon x

[10ClarionSt]

OK folks, some good news. I am not ill. I don't do illness. I don't take medication for anything. Never have, not even
over-the-counter gubbins. Not bad for 74. Many people younger than me would wish for my situation. Now, is that the opposite of most of the replies on this post? Yep!

[Barsel]

See my post-Fri @ 21.39 10 Clarion. You are from Manchester I take it?

[-SharonA-]

I am coming down with something, sore throat & hubby has a hacking cough. Bought cough mixture & lemsip to take. It's gonna be a very quiet Xmas for us both.

[10ClarionSt]

Barsel, you are correct. I live in sunny Middleton, North Manchester. The exact centre of the known universe. Well, maybe not!

[goodgoalie]

Clarion - you've heard the expression 'tempting fate' haven't you? Your post at 9:16 is a great example. Good luck with getting through the festive season lurgy-free!

[10ClarionSt]

Is it fate? That i don't have any health problems? Coud be. It could also be that I've looked after myself. Not overly so, but might be.

[MissTerious2]

A lot of us look after ourselves but have chronic illnesses or just bad luck. You are lucky C larion . I hope your luck continues. Mine ran out years ago basically because of inherited genes and now because of a very serious illness.

[Karmlady]

I'm poorly too. 4 days now. 3 of those lying on sofa. Having Christmas dinner next weekend instead

[ladybirder]

I'm like you Karmlady. Not feeling any better yet.

I hope others have cheered up a bit.

[Karmlady]

It's miserable isn't it ladybirder. There seems to be so many people poorly this Christmas. I can't sleep v well and gone from flu like symptoms to now got headache and cough. I hope everyone feels better soon too.

[ladybirder]

Clarion be careful. I was fine until I was 81 and then it started and hasn't stopped.

I've had a couple of hours rest this afternoon KL. Going to try and stay up to watch the film just started on BBC2, Goodfellas. Seen it before and I remember it was very good. Doesn't finish until 0.35 so we'll see.

[Tilly2]

Sorry to hear you are poorly, LB.
I hope you and all the other unwell people will be feeling better soon.
