Gents, after having had a particularly nasty bout of Covid, 3 weeks now and still coughing, I have to say the two most active threads I follow on here, The word association game and the three word story have been a real stimulus for me to get through some really bad days.
I would just like to say thank you to everyone for helping a very old feeling man slowly recover.
Thank you all

Dave, get well soon and all the very best. I'm looking forward to seeing you in person again, whenever it will be possible again.

Hope you get clear of this nasty plague soon. I caught a dose while in hospital for an operation. Thanks NHS. ;) It took best part of ten days for symptoms to abate, still feeling pretty shattered plus recovery from op.
Take care and maybe we can all catch up in the near-ish future.

Hi Dave.
Sorry to hear you caught the plague, have you had your two jabs and a booster yet, if so what hope for us i say, i think we will all catch sooner or later, Rob thought he caught it a few weeks back but was a false alarm, i took ill in Feb this year, knocked off my feet for six weeks i mean i could not walk without an aid.

Never really found out what it was, as a couple of tests came back negative, anyways hope you get well soon, keep eating those hot soups, with cheese bread, and some good wholesome stews, topped of with a nice hot toddy every night :cheers: you could always pop over to the other side and read the load of BS that goes on in the social forums :lol: Steve.

Hi Steve, I've had my jabs, was due the booster on the 11th Nov but tested positive on the 8th. Two weeks previous was suffering from a cold which always gets on my chest, just started to get better from that, had a day free of coughing then covid arrived and started coughing straight away. Next booster is booked for the 18th Dec.
I do look at the OC but tend to mark all forums as read and pick and choose what I read, there are a lot of eggspurts there who should be running the country and should be able to sort out the world fairly quickly lol

Planning is an unnatural process, much better to just get on with things, that way failure comes as a complete surprise instead of being preceeded by a period of worry and doubt

I wish you a speedy and full recovery Dave. Hope to meet up next year at a Nano, still need to fit those rear door handles that you gave me many moons ago.

I wish you a speedy and full recovery Mick. As for the NHS, don't get me started, especially the Medical Centre where I live that has three separate surgeries of AWOL doctors and imbecilic receptionists.

Update,
Now clear of Covid but still coughing occasionally so don't really go anywhere as temperature changes make the cough worse. Still very lethargic and sleeping a lot. At least the mucus is mainly gone now but still find breathing a struggle after a bit of exercise. We'll get there, looking forward to next year's meets.
I'm so glad I had my jabs, I would have been a lot worse without, probably ending up in hospital.

It seems if you have contracted covid and you get over it, your immune system is stronger than having the jabs, and lasts longer also, i have a feeling we will be having another booster around March, and think these jabs will go on until we have all caught it, jabbed or not.
