Le Mans Flu

[CpnSpankyPantz]

I seem to get it every year coughing up lots of green rubbish and very snotty... Anyone else suffering/get it?

[haggy]

Yep! i seem to get some kind of itchy blistors on the roof of my mouth too!

[Parsnip]

Same here - dont know if its just from le mans or the flight home from luton to edinburgh - either way it is a bit crappy to feel like this when the weather is half decent

[vdubbin]

Is this accompanied by general malaise and lack of energy? I think I might have this as well.

Exactly what I got within a day of arriving there. Put it down to excess drinking and hayfever initially. Felt pretty crap at a few points over the weekend.

Yeah I seem to have a cold/man flu thing! Felt a bit shoddy driving home on sunday, put it down to being knackered and depressed at leaving Le Mans for another yeah, but now im all bunged up, coughing non-stop and generally feeling pants. Glad its not just me in a way!

Im blaming the french.. le jambon flu.

Bunch of pansies It's what happens when you spend a few days camping in a field drinking beer and eating whatever you can cook on the BBQ while getting very little sleep!

[robmlufc]

Never happened before! Can cope with a Le Mans induced hangover. Could be withdrawl symptoms

[chocolatemonk]

hmmm i have some weird symptoms...since I have been back I keep hearing a rumbling noise in my head and finding myself staring at June 2010 on the calendar

[vetteheadracer]

Perhaps you all have Swine Flu?

I'll go along with this, lets say my working week from tuesday to today hasn't been my most productive. It has meant i've had chance to tool around on the tinterweb looking at pictures from the weekend tho.

Yes from me too!

I felt it on the first full day, thought it was hayfever and took some hayfever tablets which worked a treat, the next day though nothing would help!

My dad gets it too!

i think that's down to a lack of sleep

but on Tuesday morning at 11:00am, I thought 'Where's my beer?'

[Mr Recovery]

Thank god for this thread. I thought I was suffering alone. I can understand feeling a bit rough after 4 days drinking and lack of sleep, but coughing and feeling bunged up didn't make any sence to me.
And I thought alcohol killed germs

[peaktorque]

I thought it was just me!

After the drive down minus roof on Thursday I felt that my hayfever had returned (I normally get it between March and April in England).

Felt ste on the Friday, so held back on the .

Seemed to recover on Saturday, but felt tired ever since!

I think I'm over it now and enjoying my first since Sunday.

Roll on next year!

Twice Ive lost my voice at Le Mans, and could only talk at a very high pitch...very odd....both years I went down as a Noble GT03 passenger....probs scared sh*tless but didnt realise..!

[jake bullet]

we have suffered this problem for the last year or two, the technical term for this phenomenon has been diagnosed as "the consumption"

I don't understand... surely the actual underlying problem is lack of beer. Try drinking more and faster.

[mrsxllifts]

Thought it was just me being a girl! I had what I thought was hay fever on Monday, it had become afull blown cold by Tuesday morning! Lots of snot, acheing limbs, banging head, the lot! Wondered if it was the DT's....

[CpnSpankyPantz]

Anyone else STILL suffering?
