I have suddenly developed an incurable condition. Time is short. As I write this, the tears are welling up in my eyes.

I will be lucky to see next month.

Sorry of this is a shock to you (imagine the shock to me, not to mention the inconvenience). You see... I have something called "man-flu".

Yesterday I had a sore throat. Now I have the full works - sore head, shivering, dizzyness, purple hands. It all came on inside a couple of hours. Tomorrow - who knows? Severe gangarine, organ failure and spasms, no doubt.

So off I go to the land of my (absent) fathers, to the happy hunting grounds, to Tir Na Nog, Valhalla, the back bedroom etc.  Ha!  Damn you insurance companies! "Life-altering condition" you call it!  Pay up!

Make mine a Lemsip.
