tamiflu

We’ve been out of action with flu this week. When you’re on Tamiflu, you’re advised to avoid booze. That’s surprisingly easy because one of the symptoms of the flu is loss of appetite which, in our experience, extends to alcohol.

In fact, the thought of drinking still makes us feel a bit queasy.

Let’s hope that lingering side effect passes soon or this blog could end up being a bit pointless.

Wine flu

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

noun. A viral infection which, after a heavy night in the pub, causes joint-pain, headaches and nausea to the extent that the sufferer has to take the day off work.

As coined by a friend of ours, and with apologies to Viz (link probably not safe for work).
