Nuclear strength curry + pint of Coke + one fag = cold gone

The equation can still work without the fag, im sure.

When I get cold or Manflu, I normally drink lots of lemon tea (with the pips and all). I helps me relax and I think it also must do some good!

[ram_doom]

LSD mixed with hot cocoa (to taste) chased with 5 grams of coke.

Alternatively lemsip is pretty great.

Witchy Brew:

Put in a tall glass:

A measure of Brandy
Juice of a lemon
A teaspoon (or more if you like it sweet) of honey
Some freshly grated ginger
And top up with lemonade.


Stick the lot in the microwave for a few minutes until it's nice and hot.



Inhale, drink, enjoy. Works better than lemsip and tastes delicious

Lemsip is good for a quick fix, but we do fresh ginger hot drink at work. Took a while to get used too but it did some good

Fill a bowl up with bowling water, put a towel over your head and hang your head over the bowl and breath the steam. Try to do this 3 times a day, my colds usually go in about 3 or 4 days.
It also helps if you add a bit of tea tree oil or eucalyptus oil.

[EDBANGER]

I'm currently trying some antibiotics I had lying around with the occasional Mesulin or co-codamol tablet. Loads of Albas oil on the bed covers too.

Be a man and take the pain!

I usually leave mine to go, if it gets to 7 days with no luck just sum paracetemol

I actually have calpol, i can't swallow tablets

[Finglonga]

As above there is no cure and if there was the person who found it would be rolling in it. Paracetamol to stop the aches & pains or alcohol to numb everything. Just a case of sitting it out and not being wimpish.

Mulled wine, a variation on Annabella's remedy:

1 LARGE glass of red wine, any flavour
A chunk of lemon, a stick of cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, and a clove or two. Maybe a teaspoon of honey to sweeten it if you wish.

Stir it all in, heat to almost-boiling point, pour into a glass, and drink.
Possbily drink one more, if you are in the mood, but DEFINITELY no more than two, else you will wake up with a hangover to replace the cold in the morning.

Go to bed with lots of covers.
Take a bottle of water with you for when you wake up during the night (thins out the tannins in the wine, so you don't get dehydrated/hung over).

Sweat out cold.
Sorted in the morning

Do NOT buy ready made mulled wine, e.g, that very nice plonk from Marks & Spencer ... although it is nice, its not the same as making it from scratch.

Prevention is better than cure. 1 zinc tablet a day. I cant remember the last time I had a cold was over 3 years ago anyway. Have had 2 flues in 3 years though but where gone very quick.
