My friend has had her swine flu jag and seems to have a really heavy cold now, can I catch it or is it just a reaction to the vaccine???

I think it is just a reaction, my DH had the same kind of reaction to the vaccine but was fine after a few days. You will not catch swine flu from her but maybe she does have a cold as well so you might get that.
