[QUOTE="Grazer, post: 313374, member: 31362"] I'm with Carty! But chuck the hot weater and all the silly stuff, and just swig a decent single malt whisky. Vit C tabs if you want, plain paracetamol if you want, and robitussin do a sugar free cough mixture if you get a cough. But plenty of the single malt and put your feet up, preferasbly looking sorry for yourself. Incidentally, if you get high blood sugars with a cold, which some seem to, the whisky has the added advantage of sending them crashing as well. Oh, not on insulin or similar are you? If so, be careful of hypos with the whisky. If you're just on diet/metformin, enjoy! :thumbup: [/QUOTE]
