I had mine on Thursday. Arm still aches

My arm aches, as does the rest of me.

Only Space Hitler can save me now!

I have covid for what might actually be the first time ever. Since I'd been planning on going back to parents for a few weeks in order to avoid mans coming to replace the pipework in here on Thursday, this is rather an inconvenience.

Ack, sorry to hear that, Sir!

urgh. poor bruce. please do not die

I swear it knows when the most inconvenient time to strike is

stupid COVID

may you get well soon

Please be well bruce

I feel pretty much OK at the moment, just mild cold symptoms. I only bothered testing because my sister tested positive this morning (with worse symptoms), and I saw her on Friday. The two friends we also saw on Friday (one of whom spent a long time in here with us as he was helping me measure the living room for new furniture) both seem to be fine.

The agency's put off the plumbing work in here till next Tuesday, and I've been able to order a food delivery for tomorrow (there's almost nothing left as I was running the fridge down so I could switch it off in my absence), so that's about as much as I could hope for in the circumstances.

Good man!

Tested negative today, and feel more or less fine (just a bit tired), so I think that's that. The immersion heater for the hot water tank switched itself off three times (meaning a shockingly cold shower after switch-off #2), and the washing machine blew up for good measure, so it's been a funny day all round. Meanwhile, MYSTERY LEAK at my parents' house means there's going to have to be a lot of drilling to access the stopcock on the cold water inlet pipe for the house. I think I'm better off staying here, and just going into the office all day on Tuesday to avoid the comparatively minor ruckus.

Good to hear you're alreet!

yes. hooray

Nearly half of my relatives have come down with something that they're insistent isn't Covid, but none of them have bothered to test themselves.

And that's why they're not allowed in the hice!

I think i caught the plagues when i went in for surgery

Because a few days later the surgeon's assistant was coughing and sneezing on the phone call and then she had to reschedule her appointment because she was sick.

Bloody hell, that's all you needed, isn't it? Catching teh plagues at that moment.

I think I might have Covid again, in that I feel exactly as rotten in exactly the same ways as I did last year when I had it

Urgh

oh no not again

Oh man, sorry to hear that David!

It’s the hottest day of the year yet I can’t stop shivering. Stupid useless immune system

That sucks, man. Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you

I will try

good luck, we are all counting on you

my first COVID was when it was 40 degrees, great times

Blimey. I assume you died and are now a ghost

Boots Chemists texted me, asking if I wanted a private non-NHS Covid jab for £100 in Birmingham. Err... no...

thrilled to announce that I have COVID again

Oh no. Please don't die again etc etc

Sorry to hear that, Vom! Hope you're not feeling too dreadful at the mo?

So far it's not too bad, thanks

Hopefully it'll stay that way

I hope you didn't catch it from your new house. Also get well soon.

an unexpected silver lining

Good to hear, Vom.

Also, hope you're feeling a bit more betterer again to-day, Davuss.
