I used to work with a woman who always came back from a holiday with a cold......we always knew that she wouldn't be back on the day she should be, ( and when she did return she obviously had had a bad cold !). I thought it was something to do with finally relaxing after being stressed at work...so something like your situation really? Happy New Year to you all.....I hope the weather improves for you . It has been mixed here in SE UK. Dull grey sky here this. morning, but dry.

A hot ginger / honey tea can help against a cold and if you have no fever taking a walk outside. My doctor always says there are much more unhealthy things in a roon than outside. Not on a busy road of course.
