I've got a tickly throat, a bit of a cough and I'm starting to run a temperature. What's your best remedy for stopping a cold before it gets going.

I've checked my supplies and all I've got is 2 chocolate doughnuts, 6 cans of Guiness and a packet of cheesy doritos so if it involves any of these so much the better.

Drink lots of water, lots and lots of water.  Go to bed and put lots of layers of covers over your bed. Sweating it out works best for me.

I read recently that a girl had an OD after using lemsip and asprin together.  She was told she almost died.  I have lost count how many times I have taken both together.  It was scary to hear that.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

but being in the toilet all day can also act as a distraction from the cold..........

Well I've made a start on the Guiness, are you sure the doughnuts won't help they look gie tasty. Urgh I feel awful, but cheers to my manflu support group for your suggestions. Just remembered I got a bottle of wine kicking about somewhere, I'm gonna try drowning the bugger with alcohol, see how that works out. Screw it I'm going to eat the doughnuts as well.
