I've seen these before (might even have used some of them) but still find them amusing.

I thought I was going to have a quiet day by myself as my mother has gone out with her friend. Not to be, because himself is home with what I now suspect might just be more than a cold. I hesitate to say the dreaded words 'swine flu' but he's got back ache and some joint pain.....and now he tells me a guy at work has someone in the family with it!
