Went out last night to the acoustic night at Back Bar with Shell and her friend Lee. Jarrod, Cliff and Pete amazed us with their comedy reportoire instead of their guitar skills :)
I was fine when I got home but woke up early this morning in some pain - due to my throat being bad. When Shell awoke I got her to check my glands, and all of them are up - neck, back of head, armpits and groin! So she called the doctors and I went in to see them at 10.50.
He confirmed that indeed I had a gland/throat infection but was unsure if it was viral or bacterial. He prescribed me some penicillin, but only on the proviso that I used it of the situation got any worse.
Apparently, a viral infection will stay as bad as it is (and go of its own accord) whereas a bacterial infection will get worse and needs treatment. He told me to rest over the weekend and see what happens. If it gets any worse, or I get a high temperature, I am to start the medication. Cool.
Essentially then, I have spent all day in bed (apart from going to the doctors and a quick bath). Dozed off and on the whole day and feel like shit quite frankly. Fortunately, Shell is here and has been looking after me, far better than I'll be capable of when she is ill.
Tomorrow morning, we are off to see School of Rock as I got free preview tickets for it from the Radio 1 website. Then Shell has to go to work :(
