Ive had a nasty head cold for the last four days and thought my T would react badly to it but thankfully it hasnt for which Im grateful for. Maybe its because Ive stayed a way from work so havent had the added stress of having to do my job as well as fight the cold....just hope i dont pay for this later on.

Spoke too soon David, my T has been loud all day today and even hearing aide isn't helping, having to listen to my chirping crickets on the white noise app just to get some relief, I know it will settle again in a day or so but its so frustrating when its been quieter for a few days and then it rears its ugly head again.

Hope you're not in any of the areas that are going to be hit by this "Big storm" they keep talking about. We should miss the worst of it providing it doesn't change course, but loving the unnaturally warmer spell at the moment.

Best wishes Lesley x

Hi Lesley no I'm in London no where near the storm it's annoying when you have had a quieter time and it spikes again but at least you know it will come down again take care. David
