Too cruel even for Adam, no?!

Finger on button.

Speaking of colds - how does so much snot come out of a (fairly) normal head? Which, I should point out, is a question from someone with a very bad head cold - rather than (in this case) a comment on the quality of the above quantity.

Jeez Adam, have you been a fly on the wall in my house or what? Frown

Anyway, when you find out the answer, if you could let me know I should be most grateful.

Yours, etc.

I heard that only 4 characters were used in the original forum design, as no-one anticipated as many posts - therefore armageddon may arise once Fritz goes over 9999, much like the Y2K 'bug'.

Innit?

They do say that if you can get out of bed - it isn't 'flu.

As I didn't make it into work today - perhaps it is.

Adam

If you can make it to the PC, it isn't flu.

The definition of flu is that you are lying in bed on a windy day and someone drops £10 grand in notes on your doorstep. If you couldn't be bothered to get out of bed, you got the flu.

I do not know how we would relate this definition to Fritz, he just never gets out of bed period.

Regards

Mick

No, that's the definition of a consultant.

AND they were, as usual, dropping £10,000 in notes to induce me.

No it isn't flu (a migrating duck tells me) but it doesn't leave me feeling too clever.

According to my missus, if you are a bloke and you have a sniffle, it's definitely flu.

If it makes you feel any better, Adam (I doubt it will actually, but anyway..) I took the day off work myself last Monday, after a weekend spent with a particularly heavy cold, which has only just subsided in the last few days.

It wasn't flu though - I know that much cos I've had flu and let me tell you something - it isn't pretty.

Mick,

I'm not exaggerating, (why should I anyway?) when I say that I actually burst out laughing when I read your post. The current partner of Count.d was forced to shout from the west wing, what are you laughing at?

The day you retire from the Naim forum, I will be only too happy to give up my position as the most respected member of the Naim community.

Point 1: perhaps Mr Fritz should be charged for each post to deter him from wasting naim's server storage and our time....

Point 2: Adam, retire to bed with a hot toddy and a hot totty.....the first will make you feel better and the second will just feel better....

Jo

He would just add the cost to his current debt and would never repay it.

Count'd .. TY

I have just had the first (home measures) toddy and I love you all.

I intend to go all the way 'til I see the two (empty) bottles at the end of my bed and then ... watch out.

Go to work. What do I get - "Oooh - man 'flu, you poor suffering wimp" and all that. Nobody unnerstands me, innit.

Finally - I understand these threads.

That's disgusting. The marks on Adam's knees are from hard cornering on his motorcycle.

Whereas, whilst not wishing to limit free speech and all, there are those who might say something slightly shorter:

"Now if he had style he would retire on 10,000 posts."
