Make my cold feel better!

[IJumpedAboardAPirateShip]

Rotten cold (just super snotty and headachey and generally feeling shit but no sore throat or temperature) and have to work today and all this week - 7am starts. It’s not a hard job, I sit on my arse most of the time but feeling sorry for myself, what short term remedies do you have to help me feel a bit better?!

Am fully dosed up on max strength

Fie fi fo fum
Vanish cold, be gone!

Are you getting loads of liquids and rest?

Yeah but have to work today so rest is out for now (and my house looks like a shit tip because apparently I actually am the only fucker who bothers to keep it clean and tidy - but that’s another thread)

Oh that's a shame - can anyone else take over?

I would recommend a hot toddy, lemon, honey, cloves, hot water and a capful of brandy or whisky but it would probably make you sleep for a few hours. It cleared up my sniffles and sore throat though.

Leave the housework for today.

Sadly not, it’s not healed work, lots of concentration but not too much brain power and at least this week it’s from home

Have been mainlining hot toddies so think I’ll take the supplies into work (minus the whisky)

Ok just try to finish as quickly as possible so you can get some rest :)

Thanks love
