To have a glass of wine?

Am full of cold, an absolute stinker, my third in 4 weeks. Am very fed up.
AIBU to have a glass of wine? I don't honestly think it can make me feel any worse and it might cheer me up.

Yanbu. Go for it!

I sometimes find a glass or three of red wine knocks a cold on the head nicely. As you say, it's worth a try!

YANBU at all, why would you be?

Hope you feel better soon.

Always makes me feel worse, but may not be same for you. Give it a try if you feel like one. Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you, will pour myself a nice glass of red.

Then off to bed...

I have a patented cold cure. One year i had a stinker of a cold on my birthday. Think constant sneezing, blowing nose, hot and cold. I had friends round and in no particular order i drank: 2 glasses of champagne, 2 glasses of red wine and 2 glasses of white wine. I woke up the next morning with the cold totally gone. It was a miracle. Try it and see for yourself.

DH is in full-on high-horse mode, actually shook his head when he saw I was having a glass of wine. Silly bugger.

Annoyingly my taste buds appear to be shot - the wine tastes horrible, but I know that it's actually very nice. Am going to be strong and persevere however, for MN.

YABU. Whiskey or brandy all the way with a cold. Get your husband to step down of his high horse and make you a nice hot toddy.
