Hm... I've got a general rule of thumb for distinguishing between Colds and Flu - if I can get out of bed and do stuff it's a cold, if I'm incapacitated and everything aches I call it flu. By this definition I've had flu perhaps twice, three times in my entire life.
I do not get 'man-flu', whatever this fictional construct of post-feminism is.
One thing I found amde me feel pretty good with my last cold was the First defense nasal spray. It's like putting battery-acid, or vinegar, up your nose and makes it run like hell for a few minutes, but it made me feel pretty much OK after that. Maybe it's got speed in it or something :o)
Another favourite thing when I have colds is mustard, red onion and cheese on toast. Lightly saute the onions, spred the mustard on a bit of bread or toast, layer the onions on it. Bung on the cheese and shove on the grill... Wicked, something you can actually taste :o)
