After waking up from the worst four hours of sleep I've ever had I find myself doubled over cuddled in a blanket coughing and sipping a ginger lemon tea.

After cursing the Gods and screaming out WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY? I stopped to consider what home remedies there might be to a sore throat and cough.

My conclusion has been lots of tea, oranges, vix vapour rub, riccola echinecha cough drops and an old family traditional meal called "sicky eggs."

What kind of home remedies/traditions do you have when you're ill.
(Any reccomendations for a sore throat?)
