IO: I'm sucking on a fisherman's friend

[fah]

I have to get rid of my cold and get my voice back.

 

[Mullen-Girl]

That sounded very kinky. LOL

 

[Mullen-Girl]

I have a cold too. I've had it for the last 4 days and just the headache alone is killing me

 

[Salome]

I have to get rid of my cold and get my voice back.

perhaps if you got your voice back the cold will go away by itself

I have to get rid of my cold and get my voice back.

how can you stand the taste?

 

[~LadyLemon~]

I like those things--very minty

 

[fah]

I have gone from:

dry cough to
sore throat and dry cough to
wet cough, headache and stuffy head to
stuffy head, dry cough and little voice.

I am eating the extra strength friend's and I'm starting to like them.

 

[IWasBored]

watch out for the hook.

I have a sore throat today, it almost stopped me from talking but I managed to talk my driving instructor senseless

Hope your feeling better now.
I have drank 4 bottles of water, 3 glasses of water, 2 glasses of orange juice and a glass of diet coke today

My Mum: "Your like a camel"

 

[Mullen-Girl]

LOL my mom says the same thing when I drink alot!

 

[Laura M]

My friend is really the camel though, she drank 4 litres of water in an hour one day, I thought she was just telling fibs and embellishing a bit but I stayed with her a few weeks ago and she polished off 3 huge bottles of water in the space of a day and a half.

 

[fah]

I've been drinking a ton of water too. Somtimes upto 3L a day. One of my friends was telling me about some actor (in London) who actually overdosed on water? Apparently he passed out while on stage and was unconscious in the hospital. The cause - too much water. Yes, too much of a good thing.

I am feeling better today. I can talk, although my voice is still scratchy.

 

[Mullen-Girl]

LOL a water overdose. That's odd

 

[Laura M]

I remember hearing/ reading once that if you eat 6 cucumbers a day you can die

I guess too much of anything is bad for you

It's a lozenge, you suck on it, it makes you feel better if you have cold, cough, sore throat etc.

They don't taste especially nice but they work. You would never mistake one for candy.

 

[Sicy]

I like Ludens cough drops.. they taste like candy

 

[fah]

Never seen those before, but if they taste like candy

 

[beli]

I actually KNOW what a Fishermans Friend is!!!!

 

[fah]

That's really exciting news...

so the list is now...

beer
Fishermans Friends

 

[easytiger]

so do these cough drops also serve as good bait?

 

[fah]

It all depends on what/who you want to catch

Have you made a decision?
