Guest Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Something has cropped up, gotta attend a nephews birthday party, but i will still try and get as much of the run in as i canso i will peel off the run about 3pm ish.Unless I conveniently forget the time http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/marsey0/evilred.gif Quote
wiggleit Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Something has 'cropped up' for me too guys...Sunday - on way back from Dev's Bridge, what I thought was just a cold coming on was devloping (fast) into full-blown flu.I was a little underdressed but would normally have been ok if a little uncomfortable.Half way home I started shivvering - you know the real teeth smashing spasm'y ones you cant stop.I really should have stopped - wasnt remotely safe- but all I could think of was gettin home as fast as poss, sod the wind chill.Couldnt feel my arms or hands, stalled three times whilst moving ( cant explain why I didnt drop it - should have)Being a girly - and a bit self-indulgent I shed a few tears....actually was havin a good old blub until I worked out it was soaking my neck tube and makin me colder.I did get home...parked up on pavement.Amy got me a hot WB but it was a good 3/4 hr before the shivers calmed downIt took a hot bath (didnt help much) and about 3 more hours for my extremities to warm back up.....and my arse......lets not go there eh?Obviously all made 100 times worse by the nasty lil bug I was nurturing niceley.Been off and will be off work all week - on Penecillin & oral steroids.First time out of bed today.So it breaks my heart cos I was so ready to do this and catch up with some good pals, meet a few new ones...Shit havin a wee blub now...silly coo....sooo feeling sorry for my wretched bloody self...Guys I hope you have an amazing day I'm sure you will. If theres a miracle or if these steroids truly work thier magic - I'll be there.If not.....and if you get as far a Wigton ....all ride past my house hanging off those horns!!!! ....at least twice...
