Man flu?

[Johnny Appleseed]

Is man flu the equivalent of PMT?

Runs and hides in garden shed for now............

Well, someone had to ask the question didn't they

Don't you girlies ever play the sympathy card?

*sets fire to shed, b efore johnny gets there

*asking the question is fine, its when you hide cos you don't want to know the answers that isn't

*nope, not unless you men worship us when we are ill .... for at least 10 years,(or unless she's trying to get you into bed) then we might think about it ocasionally

LOL lynda and Two Sheds

As Mrs A always says "If it's got tyres or test*cles - it's trouble"

She is usually, sorry, always right.

Man Flu is a killer, it is just as well us males are strong enough to fight it off without whinging or bellyaching

Yeah, man flu usually has its devastating strike once a year - not once a month.....

(Tries to hide in burnt out shed....... )

Er ... without whingeing and bellyaching ?

Ye gods, if you men ever got period pain and PMT, I tell ya - the world would grind to a halt. You wouldn't get out of your beds for a week every month.

[Johnny Appleseed]

Good point Two sheds

Perhaps we should rename PMT as MGF (Monthly Girl Flu)?

If SWMBO ever reads this - I'm a dead man

Great fun thread

Women have to hide in their bedrooms whilst ill because otherwise they end up having to do the odd jobs around the house which they noticed are being left...wash and put out empty milkbottles,tidy away dirty mugs and newspapers and sox and used dishes and wipe marks off the fridge door,change the teatowel,rinse toast bits out of the sink ...need I continue???

Safer to stay in bed and be ignored!

[Nicos]

Oh lordy...I've just started sneezing...please tell me I'm not going to get man flu

[Johnny Appleseed]

Go straight to bed

ask for you favourite comfort food and make sure the Sports Channel is tuned in to your desire and the remote within easy reach.... all food and refreshments must be brought to you without hesitation or delay or complaint otherwise the condition has been known to deteriorate at a rapid rate....

If only the girlies really understood how much we suffer at times like this

NOW you tell me

On my own all day..no TV in bedroom- and only French TV ( mind you, you do get nuddy bits during the day)..cat can't carry a mug of tea upstairs ( actually he's not trained up enough to make one for me....must work on that!) picked and cooked supper and set fire and done 2 washerloads .strangely enough I've stopped sniffing

[Johnny Appleseed]

Nicos - you are very brave and strong....

24 hour Man Flu is the worst and can strike without warning...

[Mikey]

Surely flu and colds in men are much worse than in women because we are bigger, proportionately we would naturally be affected to a greater degree than our partners. Would you not agree?

[jackie j]

No No NO we women suffer but you men dont take any notice and let us carry on doing all the dirty work while you sit with your feet up. !!!!
