man, I'm well ill. Crazy fever dreams all night, spaced out, weak, bad guts, headache, torn up throat. All the symptoms that point towards an illness of some kind. Anyway I'm about to brave the outside world to buy some fucking supplies. Question is - what should I buy? What keeps you going when you're ill? Anything weird?

I had flu felt bloody awful, so I took Beechams Flu Plus. I felt a bit better, but now I have a cold again. I'm not sure that Beechams Flu Plus are all that great.

Maybe heroin?

Go with the Benylin flu tablets, the orange solid ones (not capsule), they're ace.

plus ice cream (to soothe the throat - that's my excuse anyway).

I found that lemsip works a lot faster than beechams but only provides relief for about 2 hours whilst beechams would provide relief for about 4 hours and as you can only take them every 4 hours it was worth the slower kickin to get round the clock relief.

Berocca and oranges as you need to get as much vitamin C into your body as possible. I don't think you can overdose on it.

Possibly worth picking up some Anusol if you're going out anyway...

I always use anusol, everyday. Better to be safe than sorry.

Irn Bru, Cream Soda, 7-Up. Berocca or the fizzy Vitamin C tabs. Ice cream or Ribena Calippos. Paracetamol and Nurofen. Laurel & Hardy or Warner Bros cartoons on DVD.

Our MD just put a bottle of Lanson Black Label Champagne (depuis 1760, apparently) on my desk. I'm not sure this is the same quality or value as Cristal, but I'll gladly FedEx it over if you think it might help.

The failure of vitamin C supplementation to reduce the incidence of colds in the normal population indicates that routine mega-dose prophylaxis is not rationally justified for community use.

With regard to vitamin C taken at the initial onset of cold symptoms (as opposed to daily supplementation), the Douglas et al. (2004) analysis of the efficacy of vitamin C versus placebo found no difference in symptom duration.


Sorry! I get vitamin C rage... Last time I had a cold I had loads of co-codamol and hot whisky, which made me really high. It was great.

Abby's right.

Or, nothing fiddly as you've got a cold, how about Passion Fruit Rubicon mixed with Woods 100 rum?

I'm going to double up on the anusol and stick that bottle of glenlivet archive in the microwave. When it's boiling I'll guzzle it down with a blended chaser of chicken soup, ice cream, and berocca.

Who are you going to trust with your information about Vitamin C. A Scientist or a Quality Analyst? I think you know what makes sense.

I don't think she's an expert in analysing quality Benway.

I analyse the quality of telephone calls. It is an exciting field.

How many phone calls do you reckon you've analysed the quality of, during your career?

I have no idea. I've probably been involved in the analysis of thousands. Personally perhaps a few hundred.

What's the quality of these telephone calls been like overall? Pretty reasonable, I'd guess?

I imagine it varies a fair bit. That's why they need analysing. Someone has to keep on top of this stuff.

When I joined, the ratings given for the calls were generally very good but I didn't feel it was a fair assessment of what our customers would rate them so I have revamped the way in which people score the calls so it is less of a tickbox exercise and more picking out on things that customers would rate as important and so although the numeric score dropped drastically for the calls, this is going back up and I think the customers are enjoying much better service.

You're right of course.

But I still wonder if there have been any notable trends since Cherry in Hove started working in this field. Has the quality been improving steadily? Any blips? Was there a dark time, now only ever talked about in hushed tones, when call quality took a real nosedive?

I think that would be punchier if it read, "Our mission is to build great software solutions and provide intrusively fanatical support to our clients."

I think Benway will be glad to have these corporate messages on his thread when he returns with his medicine. They will give him relief.
