Woke up this morning feeling a little sniffy, as the day has progressed I have developed a full on snotty cold. I had planned a weekend riding starting tomorrow evening.

What is the fastest way to get over a cold? Medication, rest or alcohol.

I know that the answer is MTFU, but I am currently sat with a piece of rolled up tissue wedged in each nostril to stop it dripping onto my key board. 😳

It'll last about nine days. There are things you can take to shorten the effects, but you have to take them the moment you are aware you've caught something. I currently have the other end of a wormhole from Planet Snot open in my sinuses, and the vile inhabitants are pumping as much green goo through it as they can manage. 😐
Drink lots of fluids, use a Sinex, take ibuprofen, and suck something like Jakemans Honey and Lemon Menthol sweets to sooth your throat and help keep your airways clear. It helps me, anyway.

Cocoa with a shot of rum or whisky in it
