Blimey how grotty and just when you need loads of energy to get packing and other things done, but better now than next week. Hope you're over the worst before the weekend. I'd pack decongestants if I were you, take care.

For the sore throat, and this is not a joke, is buy a jar of Manuka honey. Its from New Zealand and apparently its great!! for sore throats. There was an article on This Morning a few years ago about it. Its quite dear at about £8 - £10 a jar in supermarkets. Take it neat, or stir it into a cup of hot water with a slice of lemon. Hope you feel better come Sunday.

Aww thanks guys... being looking at my stock of medicines to take with me...and there is nothing there for colds lol.

 

Been out and bought loads of stuff, currently sipping hot toddy.

 

Any offers to come and do my packing ?

Echinacea is good for curtailing/warding off a cold and keeping your immune system robust through the winter.

 

Get well soon!
