Welcome cold, first of the year

So we are only 2 days into the Autumn and the dreaded lurgy has raised its ugly had in the guise of an annoying sore throat and a snuffly nose. Dammit. Poor old Matt has been coughing all night too so it doens't bode well for me not getting a cough.

Cures for colds:

1. Sweating it out, via exercise if possible, or chilli (preferable)
2. Watching films and lying on a bed of used tissues (usual)
3. Flush it out with a mixture of lemsips and green tea.
4. Make spaghetti bolognese with at least 4 cloves of garlic (stinky but usually works)

Any more?
