Oh I shouldn't laugh! Also hope he's not as bad as he says because I don't want it want the baby to get it

Hide his dressing gown so he can't wear it Wink

SabineUndine · 04/01/2019 19:48

Cancel the cheque!

Shuffle him off to bed and spend the evening watching terrible telly and polishing off the chocolate liqueurs.

Iputthescrewinthetuna · 04/01/2019 19:54

Has he done the 'lickle moan' yet?

Theknacktoflying · 04/01/2019 19:59

Men don’t have babies because God saw the way they handle colds and knew the species would never survive ...

iveneversaidanything · 04/01/2019 20:01

The little moans and groans are out! Luckily he's asleep now. Poor lamb. This weekend will be awful!

He's wearing his thermal skiing under trouser things 😂 and a massive hoody.

I have the heating on.

Mine did this the other weekend. Sighed pathetically and coughed sadly and all the usual.

Then, having convinced me nobody had ever been so poorly, said hopefully, “I’m too ill for sex, but maybe a blow job would help?”

Oh yeah, I really feel like going near you after you’ve coughed and spluttered all day Hmm.

iveneversaidanything · 04/01/2019 20:04

I don't think he's brave enough to ask for a blow job

Probably less likely to catch a cold from that end of him.

Stick a big red cross on the bedroom door. He'll really appreciate that when he shuffles down for a medicinal beer from the fridge.

Dahlietta · 04/01/2019 20:08

I thought your husband was going on The Voice! Disappointed he's just got a cold Wink

iklboo · 04/01/2019 20:08

To be fair though, if he's got the lurgy I had I sympathise. I went to bed at 5pm on Saturday night and woke up at 11:30am Sunday Blush

OkPedro · 04/01/2019 20:10

So funny! My ex arrived earlier to take our dc for the wend. He had the look. Eyes facing the floor. Weak pathetic voice. Shivering every few seconds. They shoulders as well, they are always raised up towards the ears?!
I had to leave the room, I don't think he'd have appreciated me laughing!
Apparently he has a chest infection AND an ear infection. He hasn't seen a doctor and he's not a doctor himself. Its never a miserable head cold is it?

iveneversaidanything · 04/01/2019 20:10

We'll see how ill he is tomorrow.

It's the patheticness that's hilarious! Sad little coughs and continuously clearing his throat. He'll be shuffling around all day tomorrow.
