just a stupid cold but miserable and can't sleep

[yawningmonster]

3 am here and feeling rough. I can't sleep have chills but not temp, headache, sore throat, awful nose dripping and sneezing everywhere. Very tired but can't settle. What could I take to help me...all we have in is Pamol (panadol for the kids and I don't think that would touch the sides tbh) Any ideas appreciated

Any chance you have whiskey or port in? A hot toddy does wonders.
My recipe is pour a shot of the drink over half a teaspoon of sugar (pref. brown) and some cloves stuck into a slice of lemon in a mug and then add three / four shots of boiling water.

Stir and drink.

Hope you feel better soon.
