    You know when you feel ill, and you try to remember what feeling healthy was like, but you can't? THAT sucks!

    Get well soon.

    I've just found out that after 26 years of never having an issue with them I have now gone and caught tonsillitus

    Talking is a bit of a struggle and I sound more huskier than Dusty Lee at the moment ( for all you young 'uns she was the cook they used to have on GMTV many moons ago ) but swallowing food is a different story.

    Damn throat lozenges aren't working as well so I am sore at the moment as well.

    urgh its minging mate - I've already been doing the salty water, and TCP but my tonsils still look like 2 dumplings covered in cottage cheese at the moment.

    Wish they would whip them out, they're of no real use anyway

    We all do that, its called dreaming

    On a serious note - it sounds like you've got that flu bug thats going about so fingers crossed you'll be better in about a week or so. I found when I had the flu and sweated a lot that drinks like gatorade are great for replacing all the last goodness from your body when sweating in bed and actually made my arms and legs not ache as much.

    if you're seeing a small fps ticker up in the top corner you're not sleeping - you're still playing computer games! and its happening over and over again cause of the re-spawn thingy going on...thats all
