    who else has had this bad cold

    Mine started 2 weeks ago - bit of a sore throat, then the sniffles, then a temperature, then a persistent cough that still hasn't gone and more snot than I thought imaginable.

    Our whole house has it, 1/2 the office was off last week with it, I managed to give to my mum, brother and sister-in-law last week, the papershop man has it. It seems just about everyone I come into contact with has it or is getting over it.

    Its right ******* of a virus that needs to be sent back to outerspace or wherever these things come from.
    2001 Transalp XLV650. Faithful old friend still chugging away nearly 100,00miles
    2007 Varadero XLV1000. Now you're torquing but sadly gone to another forum member. One of the best bikes - period.
    Yamaha XT660r - slowly getting it ready for some big adventures

    I had it and am recovering now. Bloody horrible, thought I was gonna shiver to death at one point.
    3 Africa Twins/280,000 miles. If it's happened to one of mine, it's gonna happen to one of yours.....eventually.

    1 Varadero/17,000 miles ridden (of 40,000 miles on the bike), it's all still new to me!
