"Last week off I had was due to a fecking Typhoid Mary coming into the office & spreading his fecking germs around... I was not amused at losing over £1.5k... barsteward."

Same with me. Havent been ill on site for about 3 years and on my first week they put me next to some contractor who dragged his sorry ass in to work, sat there coughing, spluttering, sneezing, kleenex everywhere. He was sniffing and couging so badly I put my headphones on to ignore the noise.

By Friday I was off and ill all weekend.

You ought to take up cycling, I never get ill and don't know of many cyclists that do.

Take this morning as an example: cycled 26 km in through the blizzard that's blowing across this morning, working my way around crashed and crumpled cars, only to find the office practically empty of permies that live only a few blocks away.

Point of Order, chaps - he asked what were these supposed downsides. We all know that the trick is recognising them and planning for them.

I dunno, can't even be grumpy in peace these days, young whippersnappers, mutter mumble...

nimbley, du er dansk jeg se, just need to lift ya game lads, start some exercise, swimming or cycling should get you through the winter months.
I've not been off sick for 2 years and have had entire departments falling
ill around me. I probably do 100 or more lenghts of 33.3 metre pool a week.
If you start working out the money I've saved by not having sick days.
Probably works out around 2-3k, don't earn as much as you boys!!
