Thanks all, I can't say I feel human yet but I did manage 3 hours sleep on and off and have got dressed lol.

I think I must get a small amount of alchohol in for future
need ;-) and thanks Chris, I shall also get some brown sugar. My mum used to boil an onion in milk and then drink it and eat the onion...but I can't bring myself to do that!

A Whisky Toddy is what you need,my girl!
..and, apparently, 'Vick' on the soles of your feet!

My mum used to give us Junket when we were ill.

Who remembers that?
...and can you still get it?

Ahhhhh pull yerself together our Rose and have a very very very large dose of something alcoholic and if theres none in the house, then a few spoons of meths should do the job. And a lemon or satsuma would do. And lots of drugs. :-D There you go, my version of tlc....oops...and hope you feel better soon :-) XXXX BC

If you have any dk brown sugar and an onion - slice onion thinly and place in layers in bowl with sugar in between, cover with cling film and keep in fridge. By morning there should be the beginnings of a syrup which will soothe your cough and chest. Does not taste of onions. Will last for 3-4 days.

Tried and tested by 4 generations! Take care summer colds are nasty.

Prince Philip's new title is intended to soften the blow as he has to relinquish the 'Duke of Edinburgh' badge when Scotland declares UDI.

Ok - RR. Dive in!
