Thanks, just ordered enough for the next couple of years!

Just received my order for 2 x cd plus a couple of other small items. There was a delay in receiving them and it needed a quick phone call to prompt them along, they say they have a backlog due to Martin's publicity for their products! One small moan is the cost of shipping - mine came to £4.23, actual postage was 68p and the cost of the jiffy bag must have taken up the balance.:eek:

The loaded postage issue has come up a few times now.

Perhaps Sam would care to comment on this?

I take it this sort of thing is what SAM is talking about with regard to abuse of her site?

Pretty scandalous...

The RPSGB and MHRA should be taking action against people like that - just like the General Optical Council did against people selling contact lenses on eBay.

Just ordered 4 more packs of Loratadine 30s at £5.96 + FREE p&p (this time) to keep in stock for Hubby's hayfever next year . Great!

Sorry for any postal delays and postal costs error incurred on the site. As the website volumes and postage is pretty new to us, we are on a steep learning curve.

I take exception to be called a "borderline scammer".

Delays in postage are caused by every sale, having to be sanctioned by a pharmacist, who reviews the responses submitted back, by the purchaser.

Free Postage is still set on the website. We will honour the offer until the end of August, subject to availability of stocks.

Thanks for the suggestions, which we have acted on and listed as many products as suggested a GREAT prices. Loads of new generic medicines are now listed.

I have suffered from hayfever for around 25 years. I have taken a variety of drugs over the early years as well as courses of injections via my local G.P.

18 years, or so, ago I heard a very interesting discusssion on Radio 4, about hayfever, where various natural remedies were discussed, one of which was honey. Although I had never been a fan of honey, I decided to try it and,being a tea drinker, I replaced my spoonful of suger with a spoonful of honey and really enjoyed the taste, plus the thought of the goodness, said to be derived from honey, was a bonus.

After a few months my hayfever decreased. It probably would have done so anyway as the flowering season changed, but I continued to use honey, on a daily basis, all year round. I still have occasional bouts of hayfever, but never to the extent that I am disabled by it and, generally, I never even particularly notice it.

The instructions for a drug free remedy are important, but very easy. The honey must be obtained from a local source, ideally within 6 miles of where you live. This will ensure that the plants affecting you are the same species that the bees are collecting from. It is better to start early in the year as it takes upto three months to start to build up a natural resistance. I don't know how much one needs to take, but I normally have about four cups of tea a day, therefore four spoonfulls. Finally, be patient. It may not work for everyone but, even if it doesn't, you will receive the benefit a wonderful natural product.

Don't fill yourselves full of drugs, eat honey.

As has already been mentioned honey is reputed to help alleviate the symptoms of hayfever. The recommended 'dose' seems to be about one teaspoon a day and it should be obtained from a beekeeper within a 6 miles radius of where you live.

Cut comb is probably best as it contains the vital pollens and is as pure as one can get and if you haven't tasted it before you are in for a treat. It is expensive but it takes a lot of effort by the bees and the beekeeper to produce.

You are wasting your time if you buy most of the imported stuff they sell in supermarkets. It will almost certainly have been heated, filtered and obtained from virtually unknown and unregulated sources. What do they put on their jars? Oh yes! I remember, A blend of EC and non EC honeys or Produce of more than one country...yuck.

Every area has local beekeeping associations and they will suggest the best beekeepers in your location that can supply you with some decent honey.

Better still get yourself a hive of bees and make your own. Contact the BBKA or SBKA (Scotland) or your local association and they will get you going with free courses and unlimited advice.

I use bicarbonate of soda. Boil about cupful of water add about 1/2 teaspoon or slightly less less of bicarbonate of soda .If you stir it make sure spoon sterilized. Let cool and use cotton wool balls to dab eyes.

An optician told me buying Optrex was a waste and told me to use bicarb. I was very surprised that it works - and cheap too.

I also use mixture on any itchy bits on the skin - for example if you skin is itchy after using some soaps.

Hope this helps.
