Well, hitherto this year I've had a smug satisfaction that I've been completely unaffected by what others describe to be the worst pollen count in many a year. Whilst these poor souls have wept into their handkerchieves, I've sighed exaggeratedly and brushed specks of imaginary dust off my shoulder.

Today we went for a walk around Worcester, ostensibly to admire a historical Cathedral city, but more realistically to seek out a nice real ale / wine to chill out in.

We decided to stop somewhere on the journey home. That somewhere was on the edge of a busy road, flanked on the other side by acres of densely wooded forest. As I sat there waiting for my G&T to arrive ... WHOOSH!

No warning. No foreplay. 0-60 spm (sneezes per minute) in less than 4.8 seconds.

Since arriving home I've had 2 mugs of strong black coffee with honey and whisky (caffeine speeds up the effect of meds, right?), a spoon of raw honey, Cetirizine 2 x 10mg, Tramadol 2 x 50mg, Ibuprofen 600mg, 2 glasses of Merlot and half a glass of some French Vim (sorry, Vin).

No effect whatsoever. Zilch, zero, nada.

Anyway, I've got to dash. The Moscovites are coming in their spaceships and the mother ship has a long-range battered sausage. It's raining talcum powder and chocolate buttons over the W Midlands and I need to fry my donkey.

I love you all so, so much and I'm delighted that Timbuktu won the world cup. Ya.

Feel better soon.x
You clearly overdid it on the Merlot, not to mention the rest of the stuff!
I see the Tramadol is doing the typing NoM :) I've had awful hayfever this year, I look like a big moon at the moment, so you really have my deepest sympathy x

I'll have, well, just to be on the safe side, a Half of whatever NoM is on ;o)
All those drugs and alcohol? Have you got a baby sitter?
Lol@Baldric. Not to be sneezed at, a half of that. :))
I want a shandy of whatever NOM is having......

Ummmm, what do you think?

I've just noticed that I haven't sneezed for the last 5 minutes.
Oh gawd precious popped up.
Maybe a bit less caffeine next time
I hope so but how would I know.

Ummmm, let me give you a clue... OH is being picked up at 05:45. They're off to Wales to play golf.

JD.. au contraire. Whilst that may sound excessive, it's nothing that I haven't had before. I drink coffee en masse for the first hour of the day, painkillers are a qds ritual now and my idea of a "glass" of wine is a splash in the bottom of a very oversized, bulbous glass.

Baldric, cheers :0)
Oh no, tramadol and alcohol ,dangerous combination . :-(

Well I'm alive to tell the tale, Anne.
