I've got two kids and it feels like at least two of the four of us has had a cold going back to mid-december.

I've had this cough thing for the last few days, figured I was over the worst of it...until I woke up this morning with a horrifically blocked nose; been sneezing and blowing my nose since. Will it ever end?

Yup. Have put it down to the kids being at nursery and bringing back every cough and sniffle. It’s wrecked my wife’s sleeping because we’ve a baby who wants to feed when he’s feeling under the weather and he’s had a cold for what feels like weeks.

I hate to say it, but I find myself mentally preparing to be unwell a few days after visiting friends with kids.
It's always a nice surprise when I'm proven wrong.

Based on these comments it's absolutely Long-Covid. I mean, I've never had COVID before, and I've got two very young children who spread disease like you wouldn't believe....but it's definitely Long-Covid.
