OK, so for the last few days I have been feeling like death warmed up with a nasty cold/flu..... Yesterday was particularly bad as I couldn't work for more than 1/2 hour without having to go to bed for 10 minutes to gain some equilibrium (and warm up), Monday I must have emptied every box of Kleenex in the house.

@Martin Canty. Oh no, that sounds horrible, I hope you feel better soon.
