SimAda00 Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Anyone got any interesting methods to remove a nice and sore throat, preferably free. It may clear up by the time a post comes back. but either way it may be entertaining
tech_guy Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Gargling with Jack Daniels - it takes the whole bottle mind to get rid of it - the sore throat that is - not the JD :-)
marco84 Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 how about trying a hot toddy. Boil some water, put it in a mug. Add a drop of whiskey and a spoon full of honey and stir it up. Works a treat.
timbo343 Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 i find that lemon lemsips work the treat with the central heating on full and get an early night.
phreak Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Eat some shrooms. Your throat will still be sore but you won't care at least. he he. But if not then try gargling with some water with soluable aspirn in it. Or my granmother always used to tell me to gargle with a solution of warm water, salt and bicaronite of soda.
tech_guy Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 My mum always used to get us to gargle with vinegar - don't know if she was trying to cure the sore throat or was just being cruel to us kids
rhyds Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 This is a case for the Rhyds "cure all" number 43: Bacon sarnie with lots of butter
EduTech Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 I have a nice sore throat may try some of these ways lol

bishopsgarthstockton Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Pretend its not there, which is what im trying to do now. It sucks, my gf told me to be ready for a weekend of love, but she's a broadcast journalist. If i give her this she will kick my ass. JD works a treat, it beats everything else!
Netman Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Pineapple juice - recommended to me by a nurse and usually works a treat...

Guest richard Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Bottle of Absinthe will do the trick
Netman Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Could I just have the nurse, please? ...you haven't seen our school nurse
tech_guy Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Rolling naked in stinging nettles - apparently it takes your mind off your sore throat.....
tech_guy Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Could I just have the nurse, please? ...you haven't seen our school nurse Our school nurse is gorgeous.
Domino Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Our school nurse is gorgeous. ...lucky bugger. As for a sore throat i've always found a wedge of fresh lemon with some honey in boiled water works a treat

tech_guy Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 @tech_guy: You get sick a lot at work, do you? 8) Well, let me just say she never has any problems with her computer.... 8)
SimAda00 Posted September 26, 2007 Author Posted September 26, 2007 Wow, this got a huge response. more than i was expecting im sure most of your cures work. although the hacksaw idea does seem like it may cause further health complicaitons. still i have noticed that a common cure is alcohol, and so i occasionally sip my vodka. but not at work:(, still i am off into town tomorrow, for a drink or 40. so that will atleast solve it for a small period of time. the alcohol may even kill of the bacteria. damn my sister for bringing in a cold to the house.
stephenleak Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 how about trying a hot toddy. Boil some water, put it in a mug. Add a drop of whiskey and a spoon full of honey and stir it up. Works a treat. This can be combined into an old Scottish cold remedy with the addition of a bed and a bowler hat. You position the bowler hat at the foot of the bed. You position yourself and the hot toddy at the top of the bed. Take a sip of the toddy. Look at the bowler hat. Repeat the last two steps until you can see two bowler hats.
phreak Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 Oh cruel fate. Since reading this thread yesterday I now have a sore throat myself. Damm you aa0202! You gave it to me!
