Re: Important Notices

We're skipping this week and going back to the biweekly deal we had before. I'm beginning to feel sick anyway. The scratchy throat, cough and congestion are just starting and it'll be on my full force by Saturday I'm sure. The original plan was bi-weekly with the occasional exception. This week is not an exception.

Sorry Jarre. Also: Sorry Mezlo... I know you missed last week and I'm sure you're itching to play again.

Re: Important Notices

Drink plenty, feet up, rest and have hot orange with a spoon of honey in.

Re: Important Notices

have hot orange.

Maybe it's a culture barrier... but what is this? Is it some kind of tea? I assume it's tea.

Re: Important Notices

Nope its orange cordial diluted with hot water and a spoon of honey to give natural glucose. If you can get Orange Barley then thats even better as helps you relax. Robinsons Barley Water

Re: Important Notices

Thanks! I'll give it a shot tomorrow if I'm still feeling shitty. Sadly... such remedies are not readily available here at the airport :/

Re: Important Notices

The idea is drink plenty, piss plenty and it will work out of your system, the glucose helps put good sugars into your body to help give the energy to fight the infection. Can be any cordial just I prefer orange and was always given it as a kid when ill.

Re: Important Notices

It sounds disgusting but heating something that contains glucose and/or fructose (the naturally occurring sugar in fruit, not the corn syrup stuff) helps your body digest it faster.

It's the same concept behind chicken soup basically. The body can more easily break down the protein if the food is already at body temperature due to the stomach's enzymes working best at that temperature.

Stuff like this goes back to pre-Roman times it's just only in the last century or so we've learned enough about the science behind it to realise "hey this shit actually does help you".

Also going to add this but I know you are not likely to do it anyway:

If you are dumb enough self-medicate and make yourself worse from it, I will point and laugh at you.
