Aloe Vera.

Aloe Vera is a plant (Cactus type)

That it is claimed has soothing powers
They extract the juice from the leaves and use it for a variety of purposes. In the Kleenex it certainly helps soothe a sore nose caused by too much blowing when you have a cold but then so does vaseline.

What would I do without the Virtual Ale...watered down... 'ouse ey?

If you cut one those big leaves the gel just oozes out; works a treat for cooling sunburn  happy088

If you do, drain the gel into some jars and you'll have some home grown After Sun Lotion  lol:

It gets better  - throwing up vast, fast amounts now. I may sleep in the bath to avoid further damage.

Sounds more like that Neurovirus bastard bug than man flu to me. sick2:

If it is, you'll be back in the ale 'ouse swiggin' copious amounts of Youngs within 48 hours, no problem.
Must look out for that particular brand, seeing as you're always raving about it. Not sure it's available up here in the dark and cold north tbh. rubschin:

I don't think it's the Norovirus - I haven't got the sh1ts, the chucking is more down to the hacking cough which is gradually tearing my stomch/chest apart.

I have been ordered to bed by Mrs TMR (to be).
