I find whiskey helps a cold or failing that realhoney and lemon (The juice of one whole lemon and a slice cos it looks pwetty, hot water and three or four spoons of clear honey works best for me).
You 'feed' a cold by opening the windows, theory has it that the fresh air helps. By the same means you 'starve' a fever.

Take two nurofen and go to sleep- things hurt less when you're asleep.

Hehe, nah I just find that the central heating makes me ill, when I lived with my mom and dad, they forever had it turned on and I had nothing but colds and headaches all year round, since I moved out (Last March) I refused to use it in my own place and never get ill!

Keep yourself warm, not too hot, and feed yourself.
If you get the shivers, take Paracetamol (Tylenol to you mericans) to keep your temperature down.

poor you i hate having colds so have my sympathy.

im not allowed to trake certain decongestants etc because of my various medication im on. i usually have one cold at least once a month, however i havent had a cold at all since i started eating breakfast and getting some vitamins inside me, topped up with a vitamin c tablet everyday. aint had a cold for at least 4 months now.

anyway my cure? curl up on the sofa with your duvet and sweat it out.

oh and drink beer.

Stop being a wimp.

Or just find a good woman to nurse you back to health. Men always get REALLY bad colds.
