As it's that time of year ladies, you'd better read this.

What a load of rubbish. Just put up with it and get on with life.

The best way to deal with Man Flu is to just 'get on with it'

FALSE - Extensive research has proven that the only way to combat the crippling effects of Man Flu is complete withdrawal to the sofa and uninterrupted mollycoddling by the girlfriend / wife.

In our house it's the complete opposite. When I'm ill, I just want to be left alone, take aspirin etc, and sleep.

When my wife's ill, everybody in the whole universe has to know about it and it's best to stay well away from her. Rather than stay in bed, she has to go around the house in a bad mood, finding fault with everything and reminding us all how ill she feels!

Watch this!

A guy that can have a day off so easily?

Oh, the joys of working in the public sector!


Yeah, but it was funny!

Bahahahaha! That's great!

I can't remember ever being guilty of that. I have to be at death's door before I curl up into a miserable heap

Watching the CBeebies thing isn't far wrong... I like regressing into a 5 year old and watching cartoons when I'm really ill!

My husband found this video when my mum was living us and seriously ill. He put it on to show my Mum to try and cheer her up, she loved it, (the fact that her real name is Laura, although she is not known as that) made it even funnier. Every time anyone came to the house, my mum would say "put that manflu video on" She still talks about it now! lol.

It really is hilarious!!

Personal Snotometer...?

Evidently, you've never had manflu!

I'm terrible when I'm ill - my entourage avoids me because they say that I wander around picking fights... (oops).
