I have a ten year-old and a wife who's a teaching assistant so I get double-hits from the germ factories that are educational establishments.

God knows how bad I would be if I wasn't cycling!

No do not give up holidays.Just wipe down your passport with Dettol.All those nasty germs are lurking,hand to hand,from all the other holiday makers and control points.You have no idea where their hands have been,not forgetting snotty little children.The filth when leaving planes,well i wonder how did you travel amongst that.I bet Vernon does not come back with a cold.Good old Yorkshire.

Beware of supermarket shopping trolleys; they have more lethal bacteria and viruses on their handles than a public toilet bowl in Port Said. I used to work as a trolley collector at Tesco, and although I enjoyed the intellectual stimulation of the job the down side was that I was forever suffering from stomach bugs, colds and sore throats until I started cleaning my hands regularly with anti bacterial wet wipes.
 
Colds are a fact of life for me. In fact they may not even be colds, just a wee bug but they get into my polypy sinuses and it's the same as having a cold. 4 this year, only one of which was a fully fledged cold I think. Excercise does help but after 10 months off last year, I'm only just coming back to fitness. Didn't you say you had polyps, Reg?
