Back on the treadmill, or into the rat race, whichever, today was a violent re-imersion in reality after having spent a week feeling sorry for myself with one of the worst bouts of flue I have ever had, and I hasten to add it was not "man flu" but it had laid me out for weeks, every time I felt better and tried to get back into training it hit me again like a hammer. But to day work called, first thin an interview on the current Algerian hostage crises on the Jeremy Vine show on Radio 2, then Radio Scotland and just as I was leaving the studio I was grabbed and taken up to another studio and a TV interview for BBC Scotland.
I still feel like I have been hit by a bus, the flu still seems to have a life of its own kicking my nervous system with random and unpredictable acts of violence, but it was good to be busy again and the did seem to have a positive effect . So maybe there was a bit of man flue in there after all.
