Aa-choo

I haven't mentioned that when we were flying back from Lisbon last Friday, I started to get a bit of a sore throat.  At first I put it down to the dry atmosphere on the plane but it soon became clear that I had actually caught a cold.  I'm pretty sure I can pinpoint when; last Tuesday when we went to Belem.  We travelled for half an hour on a very full tram, with lots of different people very close and pushing past to get on and off.  Two to three days incubation time seems about right before the symptoms appeared, and it developed into the classic cold; runny nose, gruff voice and a bit of a cough, but by today I'm feeling fine.

This morning W woke up with a sore throat.  By this afternoon she has a runny nose.  I'm not sure it helped when I said it should only last four days.
