NSD number 3 today.

I planned to go out but going to focus on home based activities instead. I need coffee as I had none this morning :eek: but I don't drink it any other time so I can get up early tomorrow and restock to ensure a good start to the day

Chocolatelover, don't waste your money on cough medicine. It has been proven that so-called cough medicines don't work. Honey and lemon is just as effective, coats the throat and soothes the irritating tickle. If you are bringing stuff up then your body is doing what it is designed to do.

Suggestions for coughs and colds - honey, lemon juice, pinch of dried ginger in a mug, top up with hot water, stir, add a slosh of rum or brandy.

Elderberry syrup - contains antioxidants that are effective against winter bugs. Take a spoonful every morning in autumn and winter, every 2-3 hours if you have a cold. Can be put in a mug with hot water as a soothing hot drink - take a mug of this with two paracetamol and save money on so-called "cold capsules".

Inhale steam from a bowl with eucalyptus oil added to clear the nasal passages.

In public places be aware that these germs are present on door handles and any hard surfaces, so wash your hands and don't touch your face or eyes. Avoid crowded public places if possible, there's always somebody spluttering and sneezing over everyone else.

Ok, lecture over.

Thank you! Don't have any honey or lemon but have been having hot drinks to soothe it. I've got some Vicks so will give that a go with steam. Eating a curry as well hoping that'll help a bit x

I can't remember how many I've already noted, but Monday - Thursday were all NSDs, Friday and Saturday most definitely weren't but yesterday was, so 5/20, happy with that

Spendy weekend - bottle of wine on Saturday (it was a stressful day) and birthday gifts for my Nan yesterday

Only need to buy food for work which doesn't count as spends, so 5/15 for me today
