Waited 32 years to get...

Chicken Pox.

And I'm stuck indoors when the weathers good with the fucking tennis.

It could have waited a couple of weeks n I could have watched a load of the tour.

At least I can get on here unlike when I'm at work.

Fnck, dude. I got it at 23. Not nice.
All the best, hombre.

Commiserations.

Don't fucking come near me

Check out the chicken pox diary for some lush images of what joys you have to expect.

My boss had it recently and she had blisters on her eye ball, which popped after a while and she had to wear an eye patch, which is cool.

All the best.

Think yourself lucky its not shingles (the recurring adult form of CP) my mate had it recently and from what he told me of it it was fucking horrible. Excrutiating paid, blisters, scabs, not being able to wear a shirt, massive birthmark like scar etc etc shudder
Still. get well soon :-)

oh got the eyeball thing, yeh my mate was telling me about that..at least you get to be piratey..

HA gutted...!!!!! Jokes let me know if you want anything. kitkat... beer... grapes... the mighty boosch series one.

Bloody chickens, I knew they where evil.

I mid way through I recon, started coming out in spots on Saturday and this morning was the first time I've not noticed any fresh ones. They are already everywhere!!!
Haven't really slept for 3 nights.

poxy fuckin chicken poxy, bad break FT - particularly, like as you say, a few weeks on and you are in Tour territory

Are you sure it's not arse cancer? Hard lines chap GWS.

Bad luck Tim. Sounds like you're getting plenty of sympathy at home, which allows us lot to take the piss mercilessly.

yeah. you should have got it when you were a kid! everyone knows that!

i'm itchy now

Ha,ha.

You forgot the ones in my ears mind.

Weird - I saw the doctor today, and was told I've got shingles! It hurts like hell, but no blisters yet... Sure they're in the post, though.

Commiserations to you too.

@Furious and NicePark - seriously check out Chinese medicine. I got stress related psoriasis middle of last year, had no idea what it was (no family history of it) and carried it around for months until it got so bad (itches like fuck and looks like mild leprosy) I went to the quack who told me what it was. Been taking Chinese tea (western medicine just involves steroid based cream that did very little for me except make the inside of all my clothes greasy - nice) for nearly 3 months now and it's almost gone.

Ouch! I got them at 26 and was flat out for 3 weeks, one of the worst illnesses I've ever had... :(
Try not to scratch, dude, and heal up fast...

You should go on the tube, empty a carriage in seconds....

In France, they would send you to a healer in the countryside who would spit on you and then you'd be cured.
Promise, I know people who had it done.
