then again, i get so many colds i'm kinda used to them now....
get some flu strength lemsips too, or if you dont like them, just a couple of paracetamol is quite effective.
make yourself home made honey and lemon drink by squeezing a lemon into a mug then topping up with hot water and a couple of spoons of honey. then a little bit of brandy in it too really helps.
As was said before, you could also take some echinacea but you will not see immediate effects with this as it builds up your immunity gradually.
