Waa! I have a presentation for one of my uni assignments on tuesday but I've got a cold and it's getting worse! DH has had a really bad cold - lips & nose have got so dry they're all cracked and he's been getting nose bleeds from blowing his nose so much poor thing.

If it does get really bad what do you guys think I can do to unblock my nose (blowing it does nothing -_-) and feel more awake for my presentation?

I've been working so hard on this (unlike most of my team), I hope my cold doesn't make it go down the drain I mean, it's only half the the marks of 1 out of 2 assignments, but every mark counts.

Have you tried taking any thing for it so far. I always find that the lemsip max cold and flu releif to be quite good.

Alternates to try and unbung your nose could be Olbas oil.... Vicks... Vicks tube thing...

Vicks also have a new product out. It was advertised on TV last night... Something you take on a night. Cant remember exactly what it is but might be worth a try?

Good Luck with Tuesday any way Xx

Oooooh I swear by the Lemsip powders or what ever they are , you do not add hot water, you just open the packet and tip it straight on your tongue, .......I think they are brilliant, I have never been one to waste money on cold products so when introduced to these and they worked, I make sure we always take them at the first sign of a cold or sore throat etc.

Good Luck for Tuesday! x

p.s They are definatley a lemsip, but I am not sure what the whole name of them are.

Thanks guys, I'll take a lemsip cold's not as bad as I thought it'd be by now thank goodness ^_^

Hope you got on well today without too many sniffles
