grrr...

... I spent yesterday feeling not great (itchy throat, sore eyes) and had real probs sleeping last night. More of the same today, combined with itchy skin and a general feeling of something being not right. I put it down to continued illness-thingy.

it was only when I was out earlier having a coffee and overheard someone talking about hay-fever that the penny dropped! So, having Ok'd it with my doctor, I've just taken some piriton.

bloody typical - if I'd been well and had these symptoms, I would have known what it was immediately...

I think that there should be some kind of rule, where if you have an ongoing illness, you should not have to deal with things like hay-fever...
