Is everyone back at work?
It's eerily quiet in here for a Monday morning, normally this place is heaving during working hours. What's going on 
I've even had to resort to looking in General for some active threads

Last night I went to bed at just gone midnight and lay awake until 3AM panicking that I wouldn't be able to get to sleep 
It's horrible, not only have I got the body clock thing to contend with I'm also trying to get my body out of the habit of stuffing itself with chocolate, cake and booze. It's sooo hard

Still plenty of chocs hanging around our house. Trying to use it up by having it as "dessert" after tea.... Not overly keen on too much chocolate anyway, it's the nuts and crisps I have to contend with!

I was back last Wednesday for a nice and quiet few days, leisurely clearing my backlog (Why were people sending me work-related email at 10pm on Christmas eve? ).
Nice leisurely week this week observing people going mental trying to catch up in half a day

Nah.........it's like 'man flu', but if a bloke had it, it would be triple pneumonia It started before Christmas, felt really rough so had a day off work (on the Wednesday), then it really kicked in again on New Year's Eve at work (bleedin' freezing cold air con all day didn't help! 
). Now sinus infection and stupid cough! . Been taking antibiotics since Friday, but it's taking it's time going.
Well, you did ask!

If you had ever have man flu you would know just how ill it makes you feel.
I am pretty certain it's been equated to the ebola virus by many scientists. Frankly, its a testament to men that we even make it through alive.

Men are all wimps, I've had man flu over Christmas so can fully appreciate the devastating nature of this terrible illness but still had to cook for and look after six guests, clean, do the laundry, do the shopping etc etc. My other half went to work Christmas Day, was a little bit sick and had to come home and spend the rest of the day in bed
Pete, I'm still struggling with that image of you sitting in your underpants at work

I keep getting interupted though because I keep getting girls coming up to me all the time asking me if I would like to go to the stationary cupboard with them because I look like I can deliver exactly the kind of hot sauce they have been craving. Probably.
