Hello. A while ago, all you lovely Mumsnetters gave us some brilliant tips for surviving winter colds and sniffles. Well, now we want to know which of those tips you think is the very best of all.

And, thanks to the very nice folk at Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissues, everyone who votes for their top tip will be in with the chance to win £500 of Center Parcs vouchers.

All you need to do is check out the tips and then click on the link at the bottom to come back to this thread and post the name of the Mumsnetter whose tip you liked best. (Some Mumsnetters have got more than one tip on the list, so if you're voting for one of them, please specify tip 1 or tip 2).

All votes must be posted on this thread by the closing date: midnight on Tuesday 24th February. Good luck!

Plantsitter

definitely not playing favourites because I can't remember seeing her post once, but I think being freakily sweet and caring to sufferers of manflu just sounds like fun

By the way, the best actual practical tip is from 3littlefrogs (tip1)

hassled = this tip is exactly what i have done and i must say it works!

Parachutes, just because I like the taste of it (the honey and lemon, not the parachute...)
