GRONI? General Records of Northern Ireland.....or something similar?


Hope you are now tucked up for the night now dearest Dea.......sleep well <3



Vapour rub.......doesn't rubbing it on the soles of your feet help? Read that somewhere last week on Chat I think but have heard it before. Mind you, you wouldn't be able to walk around would you :-S :-S

Cyn


this is the Vaseline remedy that was going round a couple of years ago .............. my daughter swears by it


but it is for a cough, if I remember correctly


wash feet

apply Vaseline liberally

soak a pair of white cotton socks in COLD water, wring out, and put on feet

Put a pair of wool socks on top of the wet cotton socks

Go to bed.




Believers say you will not cough all night, and your cough will be much better tomorrow.




Personally .................. I think I know what the OH would say if he came into contact with a pair of cold wet wooly socks :-D :-D :-D

I have posted a thread on General


Wednesday is Pink Shirt Day, aka Pink Day, in Canada


anti-bullying


wear a pink shirt or top to show you are against bullying.


It is getting to be a HUGE event, most schools plan events, and the kids wear pink tops and T-shirts.


Sports personalities and other famous people wear pink shirts, etc





I'm just wondering what the reaction will be.


I may need some TLC in a little while :-D

Aw poor Gins hope you feel better soon <3

Sylvia I read your vaseline cure and it reminded me that when I was young and had a sore throat my Dad used to wrap one of his (just off his feet and smelly -and thats being polite- ) woollen socks round our throats. It worked every time don't know if it was because we didn't want to repeat the "cure" the next night :-)

Many years later I mentioned this to a doctor who laughed and said yes it does work but you would get the same result from soaking a gents cotton hanky puting it on your throat and wrapping a woollen scarf around your neck :-|

Not fair :-(

Doesn't sound like she is any better Dea...........but she does have JB to look after her.


Have just had half an hour's chat with my last remaining uncle who lives in Buckinghamshire. I haven't seen him for about 17 years and he's 89 this year. The brilliant thing is, he sounds no different to when I was a child and his voice brings back so many happy memories of holidays we spent down there. :-D
