Good Morning Thursday

[JoM]

Hope you feel better in the morning Debbie xx

I'm destined to get a cold. We just went to Tesco and when we got to the front of the queue at the checkout the assistant had a croaky voice and a nose to rival Rudolph's

[Diflower]

Oh yeeuuugh definitely not the time to get a cold

Everyone should at least take vitamin c daily for a while, just to help keep it away

Back to the skirts/dresses, I remember from the Miss World contests years ago, they would say the ideal figure was waist 10" less than bust, and hips 2" larger, hence 32-22-34 etc.
Too much food too easily had these days

I haven't been well since last Saturday....sore throat, awful cough and feeling sickly I hate being ill - have had to miss out on a night out tonight on account of it, as well as a panto last Sunday with Lewis

Hoping it will go before the Big Day

[Diflower]

Aww Gal do hope you feel much better soon (((x)))

[JoM]

I had a cold for the last two Christmas Days so that's why I've tried to be extra careful this year. Last year I was that bad that John thought he was going to have to cook dinner.
I take a high strength vitamin c anyway, and the year before I took echinacea because Tom had a cold and I had a feeling I'd catch it but it had no effect

Hope you feel better soon Gal!

[Gal]

Thanks both - me too!!!

[Diflower]

Jo do you take zinc too?
2x500mg Vit c plus a zinc is what I take, plus a couple of paracetamol if I actually get a scratchy throat

[JoM]

Yes, I take a 1000mg soluble of combined vitamin c and zinc just before I go to bed. I've always been susceptible to colds

[Diflower]

Is it because of your missing bit Jo? (spot the technical/ scientific talk)

[JoM]

I think so, it's my spleen that's missing so it means that my immune system isn't as effective as it should be.
