I have had one about a month ago, but not at the moment. It was pretty awful, one of the worst I remember having.

Yes. Had it about a week or so but it’s on the way out now. Was horrible last weekend, couldn’t breathe, coughing, sneezing, head killing, shivering etc.

I’ve had it, my Mam, my sister and my Dad’s now got it and it’s gone into a chest infection so he’s on antibiotics, same with my Great Aunt.

BUT I’d rather have a cold than anything like a bad sickness bug so can’t complain much!

February was the last time I had it, I remember because it was me birthday. I don't get it as much nowadays then what I used to. Ever since I invested in a Hat, Scarf, Gloves, Long Johns and a warm coat.

Voted yes to this poll long ago but can't remember doing so or remembering the context of when .

I do have a little bit of a one right now, and it seems to be approaching the three year anniversary of this thread starting and I can confirm that, at least in Ireland, it seems to definitely be a common thing that happens around these months.

I'm just at the tail end of a cold. I felt like **** for a couple of days with a sore throat, constantly sneezing, stuffed up nose etc. I think it's because I went out on Saturday night and it pissed it down tbh.

This thread seems to always come up when I’m sick Been sick with bronchitis (and getting fevers and massive headaches) the past two weeks but last week is when it was really bad so I even missed 2 1/2 days of work from it. Not too bad this week / today in particular

Nope.
Had my flu jab on Tuesday.
Never been one for catching colds, but a bout of flu would see me off

I’ve got a cold but that’s probably from going out at night sucking dick in the bushes in the bloody rain!

Yes I'm under the cosh but struggling on. Iv had a lemsip and that has made me feel better. Once I get home later I will pour a medicinal glass of Auchetoshan to alleviate my chronic symptoms

My chest sounds like a barrel full of chains and coarse gravel.
