Midnight Saturday, feeling fine. 00:05 Sunday, massive sneezing fit (definitely double figures), instant heavy cold. Spent Sunday alternately piling more quilts on the bed, and throwing off every layer I could manage (when I could muster the energy). And just for fun, the only position I could find to breathe easily through the night (propped in the corner of the bed) threw out my right hip, which is normally the good one. Cue hopping around cursing (breathlessly) at 5AM. Much the same Monday night and into Monday morning, then about midday the whole thing vanished. Both starting and stopping were like someone flicked a switch. Weirdest cold I've ever had.

I did manage to make myself a hot toddy at one point, but I was so out of it I completely forgot the basis is supposed to be coffee, not whisky. Whoops :)

Fingers crossed I've now ticked off the 'winter cold' for this year!
