hi prof
whats the weather like where you are
it been sunny here today but sunday
is going to turn cold.

to be honest I couldn't say

I'm in a sad statea man of my standing and I HAVE to have a common coldmine last 1.5 to 2 week and I thought I'd got shutbut it made a surprise recovery tonight(2 week up on Tuesday)

it might sound silly but are you
getting any fresh air if you still
have it by tuesday. you should see
the see if he can help you.

my appreciation my friend, but it's a bog standard bi-annual cold, 2 week at start of winter/2 week at end of winter(irrespective of weather/dates)

whisky don't cure, but makes it more bearable

well the whisky will help you sleep.

unfortunately not!I've still got to blow my nosethat's the drawback - lack of sleep

and err! hic!

sorry mate just been walking around.

one thing to be made clear
never apologise my friend, I fully understand the circumstances, so if "a reply" goes adrift - no worries

BUT! If I disappear! I apologise! because MY circumstances are different

ok prof i understand.

I can give any excuse under the sunto leave hoootoo

you have a "job" to do

if I can't interoperate that, it's time for me to pack in

i can see that prof no problem mate.
i'm off again bit busy tonight.

my friend, your more than welcome, but when you return, I will not be here
my screen is now becoming blurred(whisky kicking in)

it don't kill the cold, but sure makes it more bearable

I wish you well my friend and will catch you later

goodnight prof
