Husky....
"Your voice is a little husky tonight" said Jan from Rutherglen."Do you have a sort throat and/or cold coming on?" I do have a 'real' cold - as opposed to the imaginary one that I claim to get every time I hear someone with a sniffle walk past my desk.
Jan very kindly provided me with the recipe for her very own remedy and I reprint it here for anyone who's interested.
"I recommend 1 lemon and 2 oranges juiced, flesh and juice put in a pint glass. Fresh grated ginger infused in water and the liquid added to the juice. Tablespoon of honey and top up to the pint with boiled water. It works a treat. "

Vodka and Tonic, both of premium quality. Or of course some Dark Rum, triple, and coke.
Till you think you cannot drink anymore.
You will not have a sore throat that night, in the morning yor sore head will divert your attention from the sore throat.
Works everytime. Jan gave you a recipe that was far too complicated.

(Yeah, chuck a whisky into it and be done!)
