Birthday night out tonight and I’m full of a cold 😫

[PutABobbleIn]

Really been looking forward to my belated bday night tonight but been feeling like crap since yesterday. Sod’s law the odd occasion I’m going on a big night out all my friends can make it and I’m bloody ill 🤧👎

Any chance I won’t feel like complete bobbins by tonight?!

Can you crawl to the supermarket and get a bulb of garlic, jar of organic honey, WHITE onion and a lemon

Whizz onion and all the garlic first in blender, then honey and Perl lemon and add that
Have a desertspoon now and every hour..a little sleep if you can
It will kill it off In it’s tracks.

We swear by it.

Peel lemon before adding it all...

Thanks not sure I’m brave enough to try that but I might be more brave as the day goes on!

That remedy might fix your cold but likely to repel your friends!

Ha ha true!

You'll feel better after a couple of drinks.... won't feel great tomorrow though

For now take some paracetamol and have a long, really hot shower then sip hot drinks this afternoon (not too much caffeine though). Make sure you're well hydrated before going out.

It’s only a cold! Lemsip max, loads of honey and lemon this afternoon. Chicken soup for lunch and then something hearty for tea. Have a nap after lunch, then nice hot shower and dressed up and out. Enjoy!

Nurofen Cold and Flu. Decongestant and pain-killer in one. I think it has caffeine in it, too, for a pick-me-up. You need to buy it from a pharmacist as they won't sell it if you're on some prescribed drugs.

Good luck!

Neurogenic cold and flu is good. You can get it from the supermarket.

I wouldn’t let a cold stop me. Dose up and after a few drinks you’ll feel loads better.

I’m going to go bed for an hour now. Will dose up and go out got friends coming over just for the night out so will power through!

Put some Vicks or olbas oil on the soles of your feet with socks on over.

I definitely read a survey that said going out and being sociable actually helped you to get over a cold quicker (no link provided). Have a fun night!

I have the lurgies too and it's also ruined my (non birthday) weekend plans. But the weather here in my part of London at least is horrid so under the duvet, good things to eat and Netflix is what I prescribe for myself this afternoon.
Hope yours goes well.
