Last night I took my first ever imigran tablet for my migraine and it worked. Unfortunately this afternoon I felt it threatening to return, so went to the locker room at work and popped the other pill from the blister pack. I began to feel a bit woozy, but aside from that didn't have any major side effects.

Or so I thought.

I went back onto the shop floor and had to grab a passing colleague. I say 'had to', I mean, I did, because he's young and good looking.

And this is what I said.

"Hey. Hey, c'mere. I need to ask you something."

"Sure, Nichola...what's the problem?"

"I've just taken some migraine medication-"

"What did you do that for?"

"Uh, because I've got a migraine, stoopid. Anyway. See over there? Is there an elf behind the childrenswear counter?"

"Yes. There is."

"It's someone dressed up for Santa's grotto?"

"Yes. That's D***** dressed as an elf."

"So you see him too?"

"Yes."

"It's not my migraine medication?"

"Don't worry Nichola; he's real."

Phew. I'm not mad after all.
