I currently have a cold, not quite the at-deaths-door-full-blown-man-flu but a nasty cold none the less. Think temperature, sore throat, no voice and the epic never ending constant stream of clear gooey slimy liquid.
It just doesn't seem to end, since getting into bed last night I haven't slept more than 5 minutes without the need to sit up and blow yet more of the stuff out of my nose. There is a pile of tissue by the side of my bed similar to that of a 15 yr old boy who's just discovered self pleasure and the Internet.
What the f
k is it with this stuff?
Where does it all keep coming from? And how the fk is there so bloody much of it?
Seriously, I'm on my third tissue just writing this. I know the body is almost all water but this is just silly, I must have leaked a third of my bodyweight out of my red raw nose.
And, while I'm on the subject what a crap time to get ill, bloody Valentines day. Nice meal, effort in all the right places and we have to come home early because I've nearly run the restaurant out of tissues. To quote the missus; "there is nothing as unattractive as a snotty horny man" and I kept her awake all night with; cough, sneeze, blow "fk sake" so separate beds are on the cards tonight.
Gah!

Not an entirely wasted night for you then?

Have you checked its not your brain melting?
I have considered this. Whilst I do not think it is my brain that is melting I fear that it could be the fluid used around the brain leaking out. Which means that if the leak does not stop soon it will start rattling when I move my head from side to side..

Send the Mrs down the tobacconist to buy some of those filter-tips for hand-rolling cigarettes. One up each nostril - jobs a goodun! 
Good idea! Since you wrote that I have been sitting here with a piece of rolled up tissue up each nozzle, unfortunately have just removed said tissue it all appears to mount up and the, possible, brain fluid is now leaking out even quicker!Alexj800 said:
Use good tissues. The only ones which stop my nose getting red and sore are Kleenex Balsam.
Missus is at the shops now getting them

Having had a cold for 8 days, (Jan). so bad I was off work, I can symphtysise with anyone having a stinking cold.
Drives you nuts, strangely enough, this was the first winter I had the Flu jab, and got the worst cold ever................ as you say, where does all the ste come from when you blow your nose.
Still with a week off work, lots time to trawl thorugh PH.
