Sick

Bah.

With all this talk of swine flu getting a grippe in South Africa, I find myself sick in bed. Not, I hasten to add, with swine flu. I’m not sure what it is; all I know is that I’ve been stuck here sleeping, watching old episodes of Deadliest Catch and sleeping while watching old episodes of Deadliest Catch.
I have been treated to the dancing nuns on the DSTV advert about 17 times, which has been nice (who doesn’t like dancing nuns) but I’m still feeling rather ropey.

More drugs are required because the long weekend ahead brings with it the promise of sunshine, the return of the football season and live international rugby at Newlands.

    Get well dude. Having said that, I hope the aussies make you feel even worse come the weekend. :-)

    Ok seriously, hope you feel better soon.

    I, too, have been in bed with the deadly man-flu that seems to be doing the rounds in Melbourne. I have been forced to re-watch last weekends rugby match against the ABs. Too terrible!

    Hope you feel better soon.

    RG > Why would the Aussies ruin my weekend? By winning/losing against SA in the rugby? But confused.

    Goblin > Thanks…. dassie.

    Po > Yes. Indeed. Shame.

    Delboy > Including that JP Petersen horror tackle that didn’t deserve citing? ;-)

    DW > Food poisoning, sinusitis, viral infection, mild exhaustion.

    *sigh* the meds and fever must be getting to you… Aussies, levelling the Ashes, Ponting, Lee? Nothing? ok.

    DW > It’s just a combination of things. One or two of them wouldn’t have stopped me. All four together did.

    RG > Ah. But since Headingley doesn’t kick-off til tomorrow, it’s unlikely to all be over by the end of the weekend.
    So no. Nothing.

    You still reckon the game at Headingley won’t be over by the end of the weekend?

    Reflex > I’m back at work already, mate. So no – it wasn’t over by the end of my weekend.

    I dont believe in technicalities.

    Reflex > I have to believe in technicalities. Technicalities are hugely important. JZ would still be on trial for [all sorts of naughty things] if it weren’t for technicalities.
