Hot toddy.

[skarloey]

As I type this, my nose is streaming, my chest hurts through coughing and my hearing has gone quite peculiar. I walked the Little Fella home from nursery an hour ago and thought I was going to die en-route. I had to change my clothes when I got in coz I was soaked with sweat (eugh) but the ibuprofen and paracetamol seem to have now finally kicked in.
Rootling through the cupboards, I have found some ingredients and cobbled together a hot toddy made from Whiskey, honey, lemon juice, hot water and half a cinnamon stick.

What I was wondering was has anyone got bucket loads of sympathy a favourite tried and tested hot toddy recipe?

I've got loads of sympathy for you Skarloey - I hope you feel better soon

I am feeling the same - cough,cough,splutter,plutter - feel really yuk yuk yuk!!!

I don't have any recipes for you - I am relying on a good rub with some vick

Thanks Pam. <weaktearysmiley> I haven't felt this unwell for years!!! I hope the vicks works for you, keep up the fluids too. I'm off for a bath and bed shortly as I'm so uncomfortable. Get well soon.

for you both.

This is discusting to do but really works in clearing all the crap out. Better still rather than me telling you, look on the instructions on the Vic jar......it's the inhale through your nose then through your mouth method.

Also if you feel bunged up at night, just a tiny smear above your top lip and nose before bedtime, if you have senstitive skin put one of those thin plasters there and smear some on that.

Hot Toddy OH does is, honey, lemon, Whiskey with a Lemsip Max strength powder thingy in it, I like the Blackurrent ones or it's some dark berry one, can't recall the fruit now

Hope you both feel better soon
