Yep, still coughing

The cough is still going strong so went to the doctor again yesterday. It now looks like the cause of the coughing is my runny nose, so I've got some antihistamines to take and a nasal spray to try in a week if it's still happening. It's definitely better than it was before I started taking the antibiotics, but it's still really annoying, especially late at night just as we've got the kids settled.

We're going away for a few days, so we downloaded the next episode of Torchwood to watch in advance (the US get it a few days before us). It seems a bit daft to pick holes in a plot which involves a scenario where no-one dies and the premise that Captain Jack is/was immortal, so I won't, but the whole series has been a massive let down. The big reveal of 'The Blessing' was really terrible - the idea seems to be a rip-off of the Total Perspective Vortex from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. There's been some interesting ideas but the series has been stretched out far too long - if it had been half as long they might have got away with it, but after the brilliance of Children of Earth this is a total disappointment, and who knows what's going to happen in the last episode.
