We are having a raclette tonight, 8 of us. Steak, mushroom, asparagus wrapped in ham, chips, pepper sauce, roqueford cheese, salad , French baguette etc.....
We will be using two raclettes sets , one on each end of the table. Looking forward to it and makes a change from watching tv.

It's a great game and he's supporting a very good side. Best game at Ewood this season.........and the Blues are 1-0 up at HT.

Yep.....watching it live.
 
I had a BLT sandwich and cuppa.

There’s more athletics at 3 thankfully as I’m not up to much else. Barking cough started now which is killing my throat.

WHAT??????

you have salad???????

Has Scotland already left the UK and rejoined the EU to be able to get Tomatoes???????

(maybe don;t everyone discuss this or we'll get sent to 'the other place'!!!)

A fortnight ago a woke up .Every joint was aching . Had a dry cough.and nose was running like a tap..Did a Covid test which was negative. Remained like this for the next seven days .No energy.
Gradually I began to feel better but felt fatigued.Just walking down the path to the recycling bin left me feeling knackered I went through two boxes of tissues due to a almost continuous runny nose.Where does all that snot come from ? It didn’t feel like the symptoms of a heavy cold.

The original aches and pains felt like flu and just no energy to do anything.

To day is the first day I have felt the energy and motivation to do any thing.

I was talking to my daughter this morning ,half there office is down with the same symptoms

Looks like I have some catching up to do.

Hope everyone is 👍

Sending sympathy
Not been that bad but I have had 3 bad colds this year and my nose has been either blocked or running like a tap for many weeks

I actually had to ask my wife to check if the Olbus Oil was OK as it smelt of nothing to me

when I got my smell back for a few hours a few days ago I reailsed that the whole upstairs of the house reeks of Olbus Oil and Vick due to the amount I have used over the last few weeks!!!

I suspect all of us lucky enough to avoid picking anything up the last few years are being hit hard with getting the lurgy again. It’s been well over 3 years since I last had as much as a sniffle.
