I have had Garlic Mash three times in the past week, and Garlic and Horseradish on a steak last night.
I do not have a cold, so maybe it will work for you – or at least act as a preventative when am next at St Mary’s.

Kelvin, have you tried mulled wine?
Sachets with the mulling spices in them shouldn’t be too hard to get hold of (try Peckhams). They look like little teabags. Add a dash of orange juice, maybe float a slice on top as well. : )
It might not do much for your cold, but at least it’ll help you sleep, which is what you need right now — rest and fluids.
Also worth trying is a Hot Toddy.
Hope you feel better soon.

It seems to be a widely held view amongst women that men make much of their sufferings when they get a cold.
There is an urban dictionary definition here.
There are some who say that the female equivalent of a mancold is the flu, but I could not possibly comment.

If Ms Asphodeline is fed up of hearing about my poor state of health, presumably it will be quite a while before we hear anything about her own on livejournal.

Haha, you know I’ll probably get the office lurgy now?!
I hope you feel better soon. There’s nothing worse than a man

I think I’ve had more feedback from this than any other piece of broadcasting I’ve ever done, overwhelmingly positive.…

Inspirational Conversations: How to change the world
Last week I had some inspirational conversations on Sunday with David Kenvyn, who is the verger at St Mary’s and one of the servers. David was talking about his involvement in the anti-apartheid movement. Now, lots of people in the UK can rightly think of themselves as part of that struggle, but David has been…

Five Questions about Pride, Gender, Drag Queens and Religion
UPDATE Free Pride has now updated its policy and welcomes Drag Performers. See here for details: https://freeprideglasgow.wordpress.com/2015/07/22/free-pride-to-welcome-drag-performers/ I’m leaving the post below up here as the discussions it has started seem to me to have value in themselves. “Can I walk with you a bit? I’ve got some questions.” “Hi there, of course you…
