I'm joining what seems like the majority of my FList, and getting a cold. This afternoon, it has progressed from a slight snuffle to feeling like death warmed up.

I was meant to be going to London on Tuesday for a paper (and to receive my award, yay!), and again on Wednesday for a seminar; but even if I go to work, I won't be going any further.

Hugs, lemsip &c all welcome.

*hugs* Oh dear, not again! :-( You sound like you could do with a bottle of echinacea.

Darn colds. If it's anything like mine, take comfort in the fact that whilst annoying, it passed quickly.

Get well soon!

Have some virtual whisky and honey toddy, and get well soon.

Grab some zinc lozenges and echinacea to boost your immune system.

IMO unless you are genuinely dying, go & get your award as you have been looking forward to it and it will make you feel good. And if you feel like crap on Weds go to work late or come home early or just stay in bed. Get LOADS of sleep all the other nights though. Wrap up warm around your chest/neck when you go out into the cold air, this was one of my mistakes last week.

And all the other things everyone else has said. I think garlic is meant to help too?

Get well soon.

What a shame you couldn't go to get your award. Still, you won it after all, and probably sensible not to make your cold worse by trying to do too much. Hope you are better soon - and please don't take Lemsip; awful stuff! Whisky and honey much better: kills the bugs and makes you feel better at the same time! Real lemon or orange juice with honey and hot water also good.
