[welsh dragon]

The one thing never to do when applying Vics is rub it in and then decide to rub your eye before washing your hands.

Don't ask me how I know this

that reminds me of getting heat rub on my banana - not the pleasant warm sensation you might think

of course there's a cure for the common cold!

... you fools.

Lots of nice hot curry too

Stinking hot curry, put enough chillies in so it will make you cry and then add one more. Finish off with a tot of Laphroaig before an early night. It may or may not cure the cold but you'll feel better :-)

there is no cure for a cold
all you can do is avoid making it worse
some studies have shown that taking vit C whilst having the cold can make it go away a day or two quicker

This ^^
I upped my fruit 'n veg intake since getting into a bit of a fitness push and always take vit C supplements if I feel at all iffy. But, I think the thing that has dramatically reduced my incidence of colds was not using that petri dish they call The London Underground!
