A stinking cold.....

So had a quite nice final bank holiday weekend for this year...
Friday was an outrageous work outing to West 5 gay bar, where as usual far too much voddie was consumed and dancing was done! Does an old fart like me look silly these days strutting his stuff among the twinks? Do i REALLY give a shit? Hmmm, answers on a postcard...But it was a giggle of a night, to celebrate my friend/colleague Cath who has landed a job at Broadmoor detention centre - lovely.
So due to the outrageous of Friday, Saturday was generally quiet, just popped out for a quick one locally in the latter end of the evening and otherwise just pootled about at home.
Sunday i was with Cath again for a gentle few drinks and a bite to eat at a `gastro` pub newly opened in Brentford. It was a pleasant enough place, i had steamed clams which i adore. But i was beginning to feel niggly snotty-ness in me nose...and LO by Monday morning i was in the full blown throes of my August bank holiday cold! Disaster! I ALWAYS seem to get a cold for this particular period. Funny...
Had to go in to work for Tuesday though, many things to do, particularly a service users review in the afternoon and i wanted to see Poornima as it was her final day at the centre - shame as she is a love and a pleasure to work with - bye mate!
But today being Weds...well i just couldn`t...woke as usual just after 7am feeling like a bus had parked on me head! Scraped my head off the pillow (literally) and tried to phone to say i wouldn`t be in....SHITE! No credit on my phone! So had to wearily get dressed and drag myself down the road to the phonebox and ended up leaving a `sorry won`t be in today feeling like crap` message on answerphone...so on return worried for awhile that it wouldn`t be picked up and work would think that i had just not bothered and think me a total bastard. O bugger...finally got to sleep again around 945am and have just awoken again. My snot is green and my throat is spotty...pass the antibiotics! I must go back to work tommorrow, not least due to boredom, but the need to get money...
