| There have been a few posts recently about if you have a cough putting vapour rub on the soles of the feet, putting socks on and then the cough will go.
Well Bethany has got a cough so I tried it tonight and it hasn't worked. Has anyone who has tried it, found it has worked?? xx |

| I know Jen, poor Bethany when I first started putting it on she laughed and thought it was a game but then she seemed a bit puzzled. xx |

| It sounds horrible, I can't sleep with socks on anyway, but to put vapour rub on first I use the plug in vapour things when Chloe has a cold, they seem to help a bit |

| OMG I feel like the worlds biggest dope having done this....when I said what I was doing I think John thought I'd gone mad. I saw a post about it in another section on here so thought I would try it. I have a plug in vapour thingy too that I normally use, will revert back to the trusty tried and tested methods xx |

| I must be a right plum too, cos I was going to give it a try next time I had a cough.
In winter I have to sleep with socks on otherwise I'm just too cold x |
