Cold Season

Winter's coming and with it the season of coughs and sneezes. There is nothing more irritating than someone on public transport or in the office, spending all their time sneezing and sniffling away and refusing to blow their nose.

So, what's the etiquette of carrying around a pack of tissues and offering one each time they start up?

Is it the sort of thing you can do and expect thanks for, or is it a passive-agressive statement that you just want the person to sort themselves out and stop disturbing everyone else.

Some advice would be useful, because the trains are packed this time of year and full of ill people. It's either that or a bunny mask and headphones to keep the flu at bay.

 

Doesn't sound very British, I'd thought you'd just ignore it and bury your head in a book instead.

There's plenty of people in the office either ill or snuffling around and the box of tissues someone bought it has already been depleted.

 

Looking at this from last year and thining about the what a horror it's gonna be to diagnose differences between colds, flu and Covid. All with overlapping symptoms and people coughing and sneezing everywhere.

How I joked about bunny masks

 

Taking fruit juice to load oneself of vitamin C will probably work to maintain and boost immune system.

In our place though we don't have winter season but we do experience cold night and in early morning we do chill, we supply our kids and ourselves of vitamin C.
