Urgent health advice needed

Why not go the whole hog and put some leeches on as well?

Got rid of a nasty rash I had recently , don't rule them out!

Why would you want BPs ex wives anywhere near you?

Got a cold with a nasty dry cough. When I go to the off-license, should I get a bottle of whisky, whiskey or brandy?

off-licence

What are you, delirious or summat?

I would stick to the maxim 'drown a fever, drown a cold' if I were you - get one of each

Meh – I am with you on the feeling pants – had bone marrow test today (they punch a hole in your hip bone & core drill a sample) now WFH sitting in a nest of pillows.

My self-prescribed medication is chocolate now & Bailies later.

But I must admit Malvolios’s suggestion of port & rum is intriguing me: but what rum to use? My choices are: Kraken / Sailor Jerry / M&S Guatemalan / Red Lobster

There's only one thing for it. Try them all.

Get a little cough medicine from Val-de-Travers (Neuchâtel). There's a green coloured one which works for me.

You could have told me before. I was in Val-de-Travers on Friday (en-route to Creux-de-Van).

I got whisky. If that doesn't work I'll try something else tomorrow. It definitely takes the edge off the sore throat.

... Get a crate of mead, or better still one bottle of port and one of rum and mix 50/50. ...

But after that lot, don't be surprised the next morning if the throat pain has migrated upward and feels like an alien trying to burrow its way out of your forehead!

P.S. Neat brandy every time for a cold or flu, I reckon.

I would have told you, but you must have switched off your tracker so I didn't know you were there.

Works every time:

Hottest curry you can stand followed by a generous Hot Toddy.

Hot Toddy:
Large slug of Scotch
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Couple of teaspoons of Honey (anti-bacterial)
5 cloves (clove oil is an anesthetic, don't drink them)
Boiling water to top up as desired.

I tend to go for curries at times like this, as it's about all I can taste.

[NigelJK]

Better than nasal spray for clearing the Sinuses.
