Share your remedies

I am a sick koala. I dangle from the eucalypt by a single claw.

Tell me your favourite remedies for colds and chest infections. I'll read them when I wake up from my stupor. I will strongly favour anything involving whisky, heat and sleeping.

I am sorry to hear you're sick. But I have nothing to add because you've already mentioned my only two sure-fire remedies for colds and general ague: whisk(e)y and sleep.

Jack Daniels, honey and lemon heated up.

Feel better!

awww, the poor marsupial.

put a glob of honey on a spoon and fill the rest of the spoon bowl with lemon juice, then take the whole thing in your mouth and swallow.

Then drink pots and pots of decaf cinnamon tea with raw sugar, and watch really bad daytime television, which will make anyone feel better about her life.

I'm sorry to hear you're sick. Hope you get better soon.

I was going to say honey, lemon and water, heated up (which is lovely for a sore throat) but Sarah Laurenson's version sounds better and would likely also kill germs.

I hope you're feeling better soon!

Mulled wine with plenty of cloves and a healthy shot of vodka.

Or hot water with lemon, honey and whiskey.

Sleep. Lots and lots of lovely uninterrupted sleep. UNINTERRUPTED! That is key!

Feel better soon!
