Hibernation (aka SLOTH!)

Ugh.

Is there anything worse than a common or garden cold to make you feel like absolute PANTS?!  I'm off work at the moment a) cos I feel like aforesaid Pants and b) I hardly think it's fair to subject my work colleagues to the sound of my nasal passages being cleared at very regular intervals, a cough-cum-bark of which  any self respecting seal would be proud and generalised moaning and groaning everytime I move.   Therefore I am camped on the settee for the day, wrapped in this:      


 


                 


drinking copious amounts of this:           (although that's no hardship cos I actually love it)

Bridget - pass those big pants would you!!

 See you (cough) soon!
