Slightly tired, still feeling a bit ill and more than a bit peeved. Yes, Skåne Flu seems to have afflicted me. Now I've always been told that you know that you've got flu if there was a fiver lying on the floor but you just felt too ill to get out of bed to get it, but this has never struck me as a good prognostic tool. For a start it does not seem particularly accurate, not discriminating between paraplegics or the dead, for example, nor does it seem to be index linked. I digress. I would have got out of bed for a fiver, and indeed, have not taken to my bed (though I do find it rather attractive) but have not indulged in any training for a week now and have dozed off on the sofa on several occasions - all signs that all is not well in my temple.

Add to this my parents coming over for the weekend and my mother being struck down by a massive bout of diarrhea - causing hospital visits at three in the morning and all kinds of mayhem - makes for for an interesting few days.
