DH has man flu...,

Second night of coughing and temp of 38.7-feeling quite sorry for him now. He's gone back to sleep after tea and paracetamol so will leave him be.

Man flu is of course psychosomatic, occurring only in the minds of women. There is no known cure.

Hmm.......he does have a garden office complete with sofa bed........

Now there's an idea merlot

At least you don't have to shut him up in a shed away from wild birds.

On the other hand.........

There is evidence that man flu really exists. Mind you it's not nearly as bad as Vamps flu. I'm serious wimp

I'm sure man flu lasts longer than 48 hours, and recur without warning weeks later.
