Man flu is a minor condition which is used by the weaker sex to try and negotiate a few days in bed. It seems to produce some oscar winning dying scenes, and the often pathetic attempts to gain sympathy are at times hilarious. Women's flu fortunately does not prevent the stronger sex from multitasking and "getting on with it"! It is also a popular topic of conversation between women, as they try to outdo it each other on their personal experiences of nursing the patient suffering from "man flu".

I'm a bit better but there's still a load of nonsense in my throat. Coughing, spluttering......blogging seems to be a good antidote.
But, the sun is out today. I'll wrap up and sit out at Kenwood with my Thermos.
A new potato man! Like it.
I have self-employed person's health, which means I am only ever ill when I'm on holiday. Meanwhile, you have my sympathies.
Man flu? Are you sure you dont have bird flu, you wuss?
Get well soon Dizzy. Glad you're getting better Jeremy. I had real flu last month and it wiped me out, so I know how you're feeling.

And do we see the Health Ministry funding research into this scourge of half (ish) the population?
Oh dear, hope you feel better soon Dizzy. Man flu is the worst kind of flu I do believe.
(PS - For the record, I never thought your Dizzy man logo was a potato. I never thought he was an egg either, but that's beside the point...)
